Tires BFGoodrich or SUMITOMO
I bought some BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport and have been very happy with them for a year now.
I have been using the Sumitomo HTR A/S P02s for the last 80k (just go 3rd set on front) as a good compromise in price and quality.
The KO2’s are what I’m running now. It’s a pretty legendary tire and has been around for decades now. They have good thread life, look aggressive, decently quiet on the road and do well in most off road situations except for thick mud since they aren’t, well, a mud tire.
I run the E-rated KO2's, have for the past three years. They aren't loud, ride smoother than the Geolander AT's that came on the truck, and balanced perfectly the first time through. People hate on the KO2's but I'm not sure why, it's an extremely solid, durable, race bred tire.
Ever since that, got some KO2s and can drive confidently in snow all day long.
For what it's worth , I run the 245x40x18 BFGoodrich g-force on my GTI. They fit fine on the stock wheel, they don't rub, speedo is off by like 2mph.
I had a good experience with Sumitomo htr a/s p02.
Tires I went with BFGoodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S when I replaced the OEM rubber. They work very well in the dry and wet. I change to Blizzak's for winter time.
The summer comp 2 has been really good in the dry and excellent in the wet in terms of grip and ride, but they fall way short of the Conti DW and the even better Mich PSS in noise. These things sound like altimax winter tires.
Hmm I did not know this. I can say I have had bad experiences with bf.
