Tires Cooper or Giti

I am running Cooper's from tire rack.

20k on them, look great, wear hardly noticable.

Yes. Good road, snow and decent wet tire. Wear well and they are decently priced in todays mad expensive world.

Should be able to find michelin X-ice non studded and studded, then a 3/4-1 ton truck I can recommend the cooper snow claws are great, add studs if you want for extra ice bite.

Can't speak on Seattle, but I had a set of Discoverer AT3 XLTs on my Dakota and my Sierra and loved em. Never had an issue. Plus they were made in thevUSA which was a plus in my mind.

Fantastic tires in my opinion. I haven't ran them on my trail rigs but used them on my plow truck and would happily buy again if I need an all terrain.

I run these in the southeast. Lots of roots and mid, but not much snow. I've been very happy with them on wet roads, mud and on trails on my property. Great budget option in my opinion.

Happy so far with my Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail. Quiet, lighter than the Falkens. 60000 mile warranty is nice too.

Ive heard of laufenn but im more familiar with Giti as you see there stuff rebranded in the US as GT Radial and Dextero which are popular in discount tire and walmart. They’re a good budget tire but dont expect 50k out of them. I find most budget tires feel just as good as the more expensive stuff with their longevity being the main drawback

I have a 2021 VW Tiguan SE 4Motion with 43k miles, still rocking its factory Giti tires. While prepping for a road trip, I discovered that all four are dry rotting pretty badly, and one is starting to crack on the sidewall. Kinda looks like I needed tires yesterday.

She now shakes down the autobahn with coopers on at 100k.
