Look at Toyo
I run 275/65r18 Toyo R/T just fine with no rubbing unless it’s at a awkward sharp turn on a steep hill
So I upgraded to new wheels and tires. I had the stock wheels and some el cheapo Chinese HiFly tires. Now I've got JR11 15 inch wheels and Toyo Proxes TR1 205/50. The car sticks to the road and is much quieter. I've much more confidence in the car and it's driving behavior is awesome right now.
If I could find these tires again id buy them, i have them on a 09 impala and used them for more than two years and had better than normal wear, my summer tires last half these winter tires.
Late last year Toyo had a special running at my local Firestone store. My company told me how much I could spend. With the special I could afford tires I wouldn't have even looked at before. I tell you what. My little CX5 rode as good if not better than my Large Acura MDX. It's so smooth and quiet it threw me off the first long trip I took. I've had them for 5 months/25k miles and they feel as good now as they did when I bought them.
I now run the Dunlop D604, and it’s perfect for me. I run gravel roads and farm trails that are mostly dirt and mud. Granted- they are an all-terrain tire, and will not do as well as the knobbies in deep mud, but they are more than efficient for gravel and hard pack/well traveled dirt roads, even if they’re wet and slick.
The Dunlop's that come with the bike were pretty good but the Pilot Road 6 I've got on them right now are just marvellous on grip and wear. I don't think I'll pick a different tyre from now on.
Our original tyre size is relatively cheap, i hope youve learned and spent 30 bucks a wheel more next time.
I run Dunlop sport bluresponse wich are fine, about 55 euros a piece.
They blow. Not great in rain either.
Don't go Chinese, had them on low profile 19 inches, were shot and damaged in less than 15k kms. I usually stick to the big names, Dunlop best traction, bridgestone best comfort and life, Yokohama a balance of both. Last for a decent time and the overall cost was lower compared to the kms done not to undermine the sense of safety
