Tires Vredestein or GENERAL TIRE
I have the generals. All day today, I was like wtf is everyone driving so slow. Plenty of grip, predictable and balanced slip. A literal joy on a -40 day in Edmonton.
Ran the 365AW on my Forester & found it to be a competent tire for the freak weather events that happened before/after the winters being on.
Recently picked up a set of general altimax 365aw for my 2013 XV. They seem to handle rain fantastic and seem to be well lugged/siped for snow. Not a dedicated snow tire, but better than all seasons!
I ran them for the past few years in PA winters. Not a single issue. Love them.
I use GMax on my GTI daily. They are a good budget tire.
I have run the GMax before I got a dedicated set of wheels and they did really well, well balanced and still held up for daily driving.
Update two: went up a half frozen covered in snow hill climb and they did great. Model y dual motor has great traction but the tires handled it superbly. I'm very happy so far
The Vredestine Quatrac Pros have COMPLETELY transformed the ride of the car. I had Falken ZE001s before, which were loud, rough, and atrocious on the freeway over a specific section of road. After we had them installed today, I went and drove the exact same section, and the car feels like an entirely different car now! Gone is the roughness, the noisiness, the weird hums and buzzing sounds, and whines. Gone is the thumpty-thump sounds on the freeway, and the ka-thunkathunkathunkathunk - like seriously it's completely gone even when cruising at going 80-83mph.
I had a problem where the Generals were 20 dollars a tire more than the Firehawks. I probably gave up some wet traction for higher overall performance in the dry, but it's good to see that the G-Max isn't a bad option, either.
Currently have General Altimax RT43 on my 15 Limited. I probably won’t buy them again as they are noisey.
