Duratracs are hands down the most road capable snow and ice all terrains I’ve ever used. Source live in the Adirondack mountains.
I have the Goodyear Ultraterrain tired from discount tire. They are rated for 60k miles and I am at 64k right now and they still have another 10k to go from tread depth
I have 70k on the Goodyear wrangler duratracs and they are hardly showing any wear.
Yokohama Avid Ascend GT.
Here are some excerpts from reviews:

"How is it over wet and slippery roads? As far as the Avid Ascend GT is good on dry tarmac, it might be even better on wet and slippery roads. Relatively, of course. I find the Yokohama to be outstandingly good in resisting hydroplaning – the car remains controllable even in puddles of water. Also, the advanced tread compound pays dividends on damp surfaces, where the Avid Ascend GT holds itself extremely well. Overall, this is one of the safest and easiest grand-touring tires to drive in the rain. . . .
"Is it comfortable and refined? You bet it is! This is one of the quietest tires I’ve tried recently, improving the refinement of almost any vehicle you put it on. That’s true even at very high speeds, and for cars that don’t have that much noise insulation. On top of that, the ride quality with a set of Avid Ascend GT tires will be sublime. Smaller imperfections on the road are almost completely eaten by the Yokohama, while the larger potholes are tempered with aplomb. This is perhaps the biggest reason why you would opt for a set of these tires – they are outstandingly comfortable over any surface you encounter."
Overall the Outback performed better than I expected with 4 occupants and a trailer, however I wouldn’t want to tow any more then 1500 pounds for the distance I traveled. Acceleration was obviously impacted but not as much as I feared, the 2.5i does have enough power for the load I was putting it under. At really high elevations and fairly steep grades I did have to decrease my speed to keep my RPM’s down
thanks for the tip, will keep these in mind. my original hankook tyres and 19" were giving such harsh ride I've [downsized to 18" with Yokohama All Terrain](https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/comments/15fb1m8/downsized_tyres/), but now I'm thinking of giving these a go on my 19" original alloy too for summer perhaps!
I have Goodyear wrangler trail runner AT. They are decent price, good tread, have a sport look, run quiet. Have put 30K miles on them so far.
Goodyear exhilarates are the quietest ones I've had, also the only ones I had to replace because of a wall bubble.
Total cluster disaster tonight for Goodyear
I work at a dealership and I will say that I will never buy Goodyears, they dry rot faster than any tire I’ve seen
