Currently got Yokohama Geolandar GO15, its a solid A/T tire, pero not too aggressive yung looks nya. Comfort is top notch, parang d ako nagpalit ng wheels from the stock.
I currently have Firestone LE3's on my 14 Explorer. They have a little over 26k miles on them. 255/50/20's for $930 mounted/balanced back in 2021. Overall pretty good tires, especially for the money. Smooth, good traction in the dry/wet and pretty good in the snow. They did seem to get louder fairly quickly, but I don't think they've really gotten any worse over the last 15k miles. Wet roads seem to exacerbate the noise. Last time I looked at them (few k miles ago), they were wearing really well. I can't say I'd buy them again yet, but if they get us another 26k miles without getting significantly louder, they (or their successor) would be on the list. In the past I had OE Hankooks (good dry/wet, excellent life, absolutely terrible in the snow) and Michelin Premier LTX (good in all conditions, short life, overpriced for what they were).
Firestone has Suredrive tires that are basically rebranded Kuhmo Solaris TA71s right in your range. Good reviews on Reddit. I just bought a set today. Seem quiet.
I have Yokohama geolanders with the semi-aggressive tread. Set at 36 psi, and I get about 20 mpg backroads and highway. Lower the psi and hit the trails if I need. Plus I like the white lettering....
Yokohama Geolanders have always been my go-to. From a 92 Chevy to an 01 Ford, when I need to replace my stock tires, that's what I plan. Great long life, an amazing grip, and can handle some dirt and light mud.
Ad09 is a fantastic tire for your use case, I used to run nankang ar1, now I run ado9 and it's a great tire.
For straight time-attack speed it's either the Yokohama A052 (for 1 lap) or the new RE71RS (for several laps).
The OEM Bridgestone tires were terrible....The Firestones have been great.
Nothing is wrong with your car, it's your tires. I have Yokohama Avid Ascend GT's on a Subaru and Civic and they both make the same exact humming noise. It's these tires. They're cheap tires (price wise), decent traction in dry an wet and even a little snow, but I guess Yokohama couldn't figure out the tread design to make them less noisy.
Wrangles sucked. The Yokohama was a nice tire but did not last.
