Tires OEM BMW or GENERAL TIRE
I like the Federal 595s for track days, and I run general gmax as05 the rest of the time. Surprisingly grippy tire for an all season and pretty cheap!
I run General Altimax arctics which are kind of budget but I have never gotten stuck.
I went with General Altimax RT-43's (H speed versions). Are they as good as the Michelins they replaced feeling wise? No. But they were affordable, have been lasting quite nicely in terms of tread life, and have been working out just fine for my uses.
My F150 came with General Grabber HTS60’s. Highway-biased all season tire, but it’s not afraid to go through a little snow - so rain should be fine. Nice, quiet highway ride.
I've been happy with General Grabber HTS60 for the last 2 years
General Grabber HTS60
Good reviews on tire rack and consumer reports and more affordable than Continental Terrain Contact H/T or the Michelin Defender LTX M/S although slightly less mileage warranty.
General Grabber AT2's but they don't make my size anymore so this will unfortunately be the last set for me. Great tires though.
GMAXs are great budget tires but for only $150 more, the A/S4 are definitely worth it.
It’s not a good brand but it isn’t the worst.
But with the exception of the general grabbers. Those are some good off road tires for trucks
I switched my winter tires for summers back on the Miata and noticed something odd. There are parts of the tread in the center on every tire that just seemed to have fallen off at some point. I bought the tires in 9/2015 and they had a 1012 build date. I was quite upset with Tire Rack that they would send me 3.5 year old tires advertised as new but they said there was nothing they could do. I ran them winter of 2015/2016 and again this current 2016/2017 winter. Last year they didn't have this separation and I have no idea what happened. I don't think it's something small that I ran over since it happened to all 4 tires. They're 175/65/14 General Altimax Arctics by the way.
