Tires Toyo or Kumho
I got 75,000+ miles out of my Kumho Road Venture AT 51's on my 2017 Off Road, they are all terrain and 3 peak snowflake rated. I do long road trips, occasional towing of a small trailer, and occasional off roading for photography and I've loved these tires.
We switched to kumho after blowing through the OEM Bridgestones. Much better IMHO.
We had Kumhos on the first ID4 for 2-3000 miles and they seemed perfectly fine to me.
Have the stock kumhos from vw which to my knowledge are not the ev specific kumhos that are out now. 17k miles and 0 issues, plenty of tread left. Quiet, ride nice, and do well in rain/deep snow. Definitely recommend them.
I've had really good luck with the toyo. 98 Toyota tacoma 33s.
If you decide to try another, Toyo Open Country AT3. I love them on my Tundra!
It seems the Kumho scores higher in wet conditions, while the dry performance is quite similar to the Toyo.
HS52 is pretty solid, given the recent balance between Kumho and Toyo I would expect it to outperform the Toyo.
i had the kumho asx in 18" first on my rabbit then transferred to my gti. with them being new on the rabbit, they were great in the dry and wet. after about 18k miles and transferred to the gti, they were great in the dry and wet until tuned. stage 1 was fine but with stage 2 the dry grip was just not there. right when you need traction the most from 4.5k to 6k in second gear the tires just spun. dry traction grip was improved after switching back to the goodyear eagle of the same size. also the road noise got loud as hell.
The worst OEM tires I ever had were Kumho's. Shot at 30k and had been rotated.
