Tires OEM Toyota or Achilles
Reviews
Yea. Also. 17+. Has hill assist for getting rolling uphill which is a nice option.\n\nOtherwise. It’s good as long as you keep up on the maintenance.. I bought a 15’ with 120k miles and did all the major recent work when I got it and it’s a great car\n\nHandles well in the rain even on those stock tires n wheels. Good. OG 86 car…
Pros: handles well in rain, good maintenance
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 120000 km
It's a good little car. Fast enough to be fun but no so much to be too stupid. Well balanced. \n\nSpend a bit less money on the car, and buy a second set of wheels. \n\nYour best looking wheels out some good 200 tread wear summer tires on. Vitour P1 or Rival RS if you want them to last a while. \n\nLeast favorite wheels out Continental DWS-06+ all seasons (or proper four season tires if you're in a snowbelt state).\n\nThis is a car that responds well to grip.
Pros: good balance, responds well to grip
Cons: Continental DWS-06+ all seasons

Toyota
The new corollas have AWD. Throw winters on and youd be unstoppable.
Pros: AWD, unstoppable

Deadass I been running some Walmart Achilles Sports for 2 years with 0 problems.
Pros: zero problems
Best budget tire brand I’ve used is Achilles
Not a lot of ratings online but I live on the coast in NC where snow is pretty much a non issue. They handle good in wet weather, typical notes are they don’t do well in snow but aside from Michelin many all season’s don’t
The Achilles Touring Sport A/S 225/65R17 or their dessert hawks should be fine
I’ve used achilles on several cars for the last 10 years or so and they are a great bang for the buck. I tried them out a set of their ATR sport tires on my veloster N because I was going through Michelin pilot super sports like nothing and never looked back.
Pros: great bang for buck
Cons: not good in snow
Vehicle:
Hyundai Veloster
Bought a 2022 Sienna XLE AWD brand new April 2023. Hit a deer that night. Did $28k in damage, all covered by insurance minus deductible. Currently sitting at 60,000 miles Maintenance done: serviced everything 5000 miles and new tires at 33k miles. No unexpected repairs
Pros: no unexpected repairs
Vehicle:
Toyota Sienna
Mileage: 96560 km
The OEM tires on nearly every brand aren’t really good. This is the part where you shop around and find the tires for you. But you can find some really good ones for either amazing grip or maximum comfort.
Pros: amazing grip, maximum comfort
Cons: OEM tires aren't good
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
Lol, zero grip on dry pavement? They aren’t the best tires, but I really didn’t have any major complaints after 35k miles and ended up buying a second set of brand new take-offs to replace them.
Pros: bought second set
Cons: not the best tires
Vehicle:
Toyota
Mileage: 56327 km
I ran Achilles tires on my old VW and so did my buddy, this was 10ish years ago but they were terrible back then.
Cons: terrible
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
