Swapped the 21’s and summer tires off my summit reserve for 18” XDs and Kumho Venture with a 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. Had 10” of snow and didn’t bat an eye in snow mode.
Kumho - superior value and great handling.
On my last car Michelin Pilot Sport 4S lasted ~20k but that's kind of expected due to how soft they are. On my current I have Kumho Ecsta Sport and they have lasted about the same but instead of wear being the issue they're cracking/tearing.
Kumho ecsta sport S. Huge improvement
I got 275 and use to have pirellis now I got kumhos they don’t spin as much as the pirellis from a straight dig I use to fish tail hard when my foot was deep in the pedal I recommend kumhos and falkens they straight
Try kumho tires korean brand and decent quality for its price, for my sedan its about 2.8k per tire
My brother just got kumho ecsta sport a/s on his stinger and he’s very happy with them.
Stock Kumho tires on my 2024 model, usually stay on ECO mode but I do use smart mode sometimes. Currently at almost 23k miles the odometer stays at 44mpg average, I calculated based on fills about 43.2 mpg which is pretty close.
Kumho Ecsta 4x II. I had them on my old car and loved the grip. Decent performance all-seasons.
I'm using Kum-hos Solus Majesty Ta91 275s. They're $181 each at Discount Tire and haven't encountered any issues while driving in hard rain on the highway
