Tires SUMITOMO or WEST LAKE
I got about 30k miles on sumitomos 285/75/16 snow rated, AT. They’ve been solid
I got sumitomo on mine. Quite. Great on all things wet including light snow.
I got Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 tires put on my car last October. I live in Wisconsin and am frequently in NW Wisconsin/MN/SD. They were great for me last winter and are pretty quiet during the summer and solid in the rain. I’ve put over 25k miles on them in a year and still no complaints and limited wear. They were a middle-lower cost option when I bought them on Tire Rack and installed for free at Discount Tire. I’ll probably buy them again. I’ve heard they’re a little soft and wear fast though? That’s not been my experience yet but just what I’ve read.
I have the Sumitomo Encounter AT's on my frontier. Good reasonably priced tire.
Sumitomo HTR A/S PO3s have been able to handle anything that comes our way.
We wore out the OEMs at 40k and picked up a set of Sumitomo P03 tires. Extremely happy with them. They're not strictly EV tires so there's some efficiency loss (maybe 5-10%?) but the car is much grippier, especially in wet and slushy conditions. Also, it's just way more comfortable of a ride. Kind of doubt they'll last through the manufacturer warranty of 50k miles but also it was just under $100/tire installed at DiscountTire so I'm not terribly concerned
They were awesome and very, very grippy when thick (and warmed up). But once you wear half of the thread, the grip changes considerably. And it becomes dangerous below that.
Tried westlake once, good first couple of months, by the end of the first year the wet grip degraded a fair bit.
You got majorly scammed. These are trash china westlake tires. They are poor braking, poor handling tires.
Sumitomo HTR A/S P01. I tried them on two different vehicles and they were downright dangerous in the wet and snow, even when brand new.
