Tires Uniroyal or NANKANG
I just put on a set of Nankang Greensport Eco Plus 165/60R12. Reviews seem to be all over the place but I've been happy with them so far, including in some recent rain. My area doesn't get snow at all so I can't comment on that.
Pros: good in rain
Cons: untested in snow
I've been buying my nankang tires directly from the EU branch: https://www.nankang.eu/ Fast shipping.
Pros: fast shipping
There is such a notion as touring/comfort tires. They are not sporty at all, their advantage is in the ride quality compared to sportiness. And the prices are usually lower.
Pros: good ride quality
Cons: not sporty
I drive a 2006 Toyota Camry. Not the best on gas, but it handles winter roads well and is comfortable. I like Uniroyal Tiger Paw all season tires.
Pros: handles winter roads well
Cons: not the best on gas

General Tire, Kumho, Dunlop, Uniroyal are also decent.
Pros: also decent
Uniroyal Tiger Paw 4s on Euro Design 17s
Nannkang NS20 is the cheapest tire that's good enough you won't think about it
Pros: good enough, cheapest tire
I’m a novice driver that has a total of 3 HPDE days on this set of tires. 2000 S2000, Nankang AR1 255 rear and 225 front. I had it aligned last year, with 1/4” toe in as per specs and most recommendations for the AP1 S2K. As you can see, my front tires have minimal wear compared to the rears. On track the lack of rear grip vs front is quite noticeable. There isn’t any wheel spin out of corners, the rear is just loose and twitchy in mid-high speed corners. I’m wondering if that’s why the rear wear is so much higher.
Pros: minimal front wear
Cons: lack of rear grip, rear is loose and twitchy

2012 Kia Sedona, just got 4 new tires installed at BJs warehouse. Uniroyal Tiger Paws Touring 235/60 R17. Mounted and balanced by them.
Why do they look squished? Like the sidewalls are collapsing? They are inflated to 34psi. They track straight, but not a smooth ride.
Pros: tracks straight
Cons: look squished, not smooth ride, sidewalls collapsing
Vehicle:
Kia
Tiger Paws with 5,500 miles over 6 months had an old fashioned blowout
Cons: old fashioned blowout
Mileage: 8851 km
