I've had the Fleva's for a couple months now and I love them. Great grip, low noise, and good compliance.
After looking on tire rack and having some more conversations with my shop I’m going to go with the Verdestein Quatrac Pro’s slightly lower scores in some of the categories than the CrossClimates but still look like a highly rated tire and gonna save me close to $300
I had them on my wife’s XC70. They’re a pretty good tire.
If you opt for replacement I run yokohama Geolander A/T G015’s on my 2014 xc70. They are wonderful tires for mixed use driving. I live in a dirt road but also have a long highway commute and the Yokohamas have been the best tire I’ve found for both surfaces.
I bought Yokohama yk gtx from Discoumt tire. I have about 5k on them and they’ve been excellent so far.
I would recommend Firestone Destinations or Yokohama Geolandars. I’ve seen them go pretty well.
And I will tell you that, for my money, Yokohama are great tires.
I've been really happy with my Vredesteins. They are extremely quiet which is a big plus for me.
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
Most of my subies had Yokos on them. They're not that good.
