Tires Toyo or KENDA
You have at least three I would replace ASAP. Since you drive a lot you need them to keep you safe. Ask them to give you an out the door price and keep the good firestone if you need a spare. The Toyo Open Country tires are a great replacement and road hazard resistant upgrade.
Just got a set of Kenda Vezda this week, so I can’t really say much about them yet. This is the third time I have gotten Kenda. The last set was Kenda Kenectica, and I got over 50,000 miles out of them. They seem to be a pretty decent brand for being on the reasonably priced side. They lasted a lot longer than the Coopers that were on it before that.
I highly recommend the Toyo Celsius 2, it’s honestly the closest thing to a designated snow tire you can get. Toyo Celsius is built with double steel belts down the side wall and beautifully directed sipes to help your car navigate snow, ice, rain etc. It is a Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rated tire qualified for severe snow conditions. Summer or winter this tire delivers driving comfort, wet weather grip and traction for heavy or light snow. It’s a true year round tire capable of navigating all weather.
Bit late, but I've ran Extensa HP II's on my car for the last 45,000 miles and just bought another set as my tread is down to the wear indicators. Wife's Passat also has the same tires. They've been great.
Toyo m588 16 ply or Goodyear work horse we run em on mixers and have decent luck with them lasting the life of the tire.
I have Toyo AT3s open country on my 15’ Outback. They have been great so far (10k miles). They can be a little noisy but it’s worth it.
Wild peaks are pretty quiet, I run Toyo Open Country AT 3 on the rest of my vehicles, not saying more quiet but a good tire also
Truck came with Toyo open country 35’s it averages 18.8 95% city. I know if it had smaller tires the mpg would be way better.
The R888Rs are a terrible autocross tire, slower than the Super 200s and actually illegal for most street classes. If you are running in a class that allows R-comps, Hoosier A7s will be legal and are in another universe than the R888Rs in terms of grip.
Kaisers aren't great. Some of the behaviors of a 200TW tyre but without the grip to back it up. Cheap and competitive with Indy 500 though from what I've seen on friends cars. They're slippery enough to use for drifting though so I wouldn't really recommend
