Tires Vredestein or GENERAL TIRE
I've been really happy with my Vredesteins. They are extremely quiet which is a big plus for me.
I had general altimax tires rt on most of my cars. Ride is good. Not too expensive too.
I just picked up some general grabber A/Tx (215/75r15) on Amazon for $128 a pop. Previously had the general grabber at2s which were also a steal. Amazing tires with long life and good performance in Midwest winters.
I currently run General Altimax AW365 tires and couldn't be happier. They're severe weather rated, not noisy like all terrain tires and handle incredibly well in mud and snow.
Did a lot of research on this before I replaced the stock tires on my 2020 F150. Went with General Grabber ATXs. They are extremely quiet on road, look way beefier in person, and have handled rain, snow, and mud without issue. Very pleased.
Grabber ATX, hands down. Less expensive than a KO2, but last longer, and are FAR better in snow/ice/wet conditions.
they are great for cheap yet surprisingly well performing tires, i personally run the quatrac pro on my 94 miata and it performed impressively well in both rain and snow.
I run the "Vredestein Wintrac Pro" on msw 18's on my mk8 golf r and they rip in all conditions, I ran them all last winter and showed little wear, although I did avoid hot days.
Good:
Excellent on ice for non studded
God like handling in the snow. Rivals the Michelins. This tire was seriously impressive. If it wasn't for the drawback I experienced below this tire would be a no brainer
VERY good handling on ice
Bad:
Dangerous handling during heavy rains. Aquaplaned very easily. I had a small light car. If you get these tires, remember this post and be cautious the first few rains until you get a feel for them. It may be that my car that was light for the thread design (2512 lbs with short wheelbase)
Tire wear goes fast on dry hot pavement
Noisiest tire I've had on my vehicle to date
Unfortunately I’ve learned my own lesson that the ratings aren’t entirely accurate.
I got the Quadtracs based on the ratings and they are neither quieter nor offer more traction than the stock primacys
