Tires SUMITOMO or Vredestein
Falken’s parent company sumitomo makes the encounter AT with similar performance for much cheaper, it’s what I’m running currently and they’re great
I'm very happy with my Vredestein Quatrac Pro tires. They're an All-Weather tire that splits the difference between an all-season and winter tire. They can handle all temps, but are 3 mountain peak certified for winter weather. They're quiet, comfortable, and competent.
Got Vredensteins on an older honda. They are great -- track well in the wet and muck and good handling all around.
I had a positive experience with Vredestein! They performed really well in both wet and dry conditions, and the handling was super precise. What surprised me the most was how evenly they wore.
I have vredensteins on my 2011 c300. They have about 20,000 miles on them and are still pretty decent. They have been awesome in the snow and rain this winter and were pretty awesome in the summer. I've probably got another 10,000 miles of wear, which is awesome for this car.
I put the Quatrac Pro tires on our Model Y about 8,000 miles ago and have been very happy with them. No noticeable difference in road noise, basically no efficiency difference, but much better grip in wet and slick conditions.
I have Vrederstein hitrac all season on my sienna, used it for 8k miles, so far so good. I do notice my mpg is lower by 1-2mpg though.
I have the Winter Tech Pro's on Model 3 AWD and they have been great. They are aimed at occasional snow and ice with emphasis on excellent performance on slushy, wet roads. Had them in an ID snow storm of about 8" that shutdown I-84 and they were great. Not as good as Xice on pure ice and snow but better on the resulting slush and wet. Quieter than Xice or the OEM Primacies on the car.
I had Quatrac Pros on my last car. (2014 Mazda 6 Touring). They were quiet and rode nice, but I was underwhelmed by their snow performance.
The sidewall is thin af on these tires. I’ve had 2 blowouts so far after 10k or so.
