Nexen Tires

I run these on my R in the winter in 235/40r18. They do fine in midwest winters. Handled about 4-5 inches of snow, some slush, some freezing rain/ice. No complaints from me for the price

Pros: fine in midwest winters
Cons: handled snow and ice

Sailun Tires

Sailun is a cheap Chinese brand but it's damn good in the winter. I think the WS1 or WS2 (studless) is what I had on a rwd car and it handled better than some name brands.

Pros: good in the winter
Cons: cheap Chinese brand

Rating 4.0

So, just drove them through the snow. I previously had cross climate 2 on the car and I liked them because they made the car feel unstoppable in snow and rain. But with that came an awful noisy and hard ride. The continentals do everything the Michelin does but BETTER at the trade off of snow traction… About 2 inches of snow this morning and I’ll say this. They get the job done.

Pros: gets the job done
Cons: trade off of snow traction

Falken Tires

I went with falken FK460 silent core (which is with ev foam). I like them so far and was about 1100 out the door (installed, balanced and tax and all).

Pros: positive initial impression

YOKOHAMA Tires

Did a bunch of research and ended up with Yokohama avid ascend GT. Reviews were good, dry and wet performance were all great, I only saw some negatives about wear being quicker and 1 Reddit comment about how bad it handed.

That Reddit comment was right. On center it was the most vague I could turn the steering wheel a few inches and feel nothing. It felt like it was drifting at times as if it were gusting.

Pros: dry and wet performance
Cons: vague on center, drifting

Toyo Tires

Even expensive tires can be cheap sometimes depending on how they were manufactured. I got a soft tire once and it wore the treads down super fast on just one tire. I rotated them multiple times and it was always the same tire wearing down.

It was a Toyo Geomancer, the tires were fine and looked nice but that one tire was definitely defective.

Pros: looked nice
Cons: wore down super fast
