Tires Uniroyal or PHANTOM
I like the Uniroyal Tigerpaw for my SUV. Good grip in winter weather, good wear, and just overall good bang for your buck!
Pros: good grip, good wear
I just had the following installed on my mk3.5 cabrio (a Golf III for all intents and purposes) two months ago: 195/60R14 Uniroyal Tiger Paw Touring They have been good so far, no complaints on my end and they were available at my local tire shop for install.
Pros: good performance, no complaints

I picked these up and use them in Canada. They're definitely better than any all season tires for winter and on par with slightly more expensive brands like Uniroyal.
Pros: better than all season
I am on my 3rd set of Uniroyal Tiger Paw A/S tires here in PA. They wear excellent. Stay quiet. Priced well.
Pros: wear excellent, stay quiet
Phantoms are America's/Discount Tire own brand tire. They're a mid range tire that are for SUV's mainly but the smaller trucks like f-150, and the 1500's can run it if they are older from when they had the smaller frames. Better than the cheapest option out there, but don't expect top tier performance like, Michelin, Yokohama, and so on.
I'd recommend them if you do in city driving mainly, but they'll still be fine on highway driving. They're fine in wet weather as well. But again they arent top tier, but a decent budget tire so you don't break the bank.
Pros: decent budget tire
Cons: not top tier
Uniroyal is rebadged Michelin's stuff. I have two on my 06 fusion. They're alright.

My tiger paws are terrible, brand new and now I can’t launch my car without it spinning for at least 2 seconds. Another thing is 260 was a comfortable speed on my old worn out to shit Perelli’s, now I get around 145 in these tiger paws and I get a gnarly death wobble.
Cons: terrible, death wobble
I've had Uniroyals for a bit more than a year now, and honestly I'm not so impressed. I find it they lack grip in heavy cornerring, and also the 1st gear spins like mad if you try to step on it.
Cons: lacks grip, spins easily
