Tires Nokia or Hifly
Few years ago I switched to Nokian Hakkapeliitta and I don't think I'll ever switch. I have them on my F150, a 4WD full size SUV and my little car and I've never had a problem. I live in the woods with a super long driveway and my wife is on call sometimes and has to go to the hospital in all weather conditions, she's never had an issue even when the plows get pulled off the road.
I have the Nokian Tyres WR G4, year round, and they have been great!
I ran their all-weather Remedy WRG5's last winter on my stock wheels and they were BEASTS. I HIGHLY recommend them if you live somewhere that gets mild/moderate amounts of snow and consistent temps below 40°F. They can be ran year round, but I like more grip during summer
I'm in Alberta with a 2022 CX-30 GT Turbo. I went with a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5's. Fantastic tires for ice and snow. The AWD does its job as well so winter driving hasn't been an issue.

Anything Nokian. Nokian Hakkapelitta R5 is what I use in Sweden and they work extremely well. They work in a wide range of temperatures and work well on roads that aren’t very snow covered as well as roads with quite a bit of snow.
Had a set on my 2020 Highlander Hybrid. Put about 45k on them with no problems. We have crappy pothole roads and for the beating they took, they held up great. Just purchased again for a passenger car.
Though now I have a new car with SUV version Nokians, they feel much better than smaller tire sizes of Nokian.
I would skip the encompass aw01s. I had a set WR G3s and then a set of WR G4s and they were great with low noise and great traction. I then tried these since they were on sale, and I didn’t find them as good as the prior two sets of nokians. They seemed noisier and only excelled in standing water traction. Otherwise snow conditions seemed just average.
I have less than 25K on these tires. The tread is greater than 8/32 and I thought the cracking was part of the tread pattern. Then I noticed the tire was starting to flake apart on the tread.
I just had them replaced. I paid $800 for these tires 3 years ago. When they were sold to me they were already 1 year old. I called Nokian and they helped me find a shop that would support the warranty. The shop I bought them from would not provide any warranty support at all. This is also the shop that convinced me Nokian are good tires. I wish I had known. So frustrated that I just spend another bucket of money after 25k miles.
