If anyone needs quiet winter tires, I just got a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5s, and they’re as quiet as my summer Michelin Pilot Sports. They’re astounding, especially compared with the R3s I used to have.
Been using some variation of the Michelin pilot sports since I got my car in 2016 and on Thursday I got the AS4s and they have been amazing.
I bought Hankook evo for the Lexus and it was very smooth, before I changed the car.
I'd recommend Firestone Firehawk Indy 500. They're really good and affordable tires that have excellent grip. They don't have much road noise and last decently long.
I got BFG Comp 5's (?) on my 350 RWD '07. They're great, my traction control is always off too and I don't think I've ever broken traction unintentionally.
I ran the hankook ventus prime 3 for the last 3 years on my IS, next year i'm probably going with the nankang as-2+.
