Tires Cooper or Nokia
Anything Nokian. Nokian Hakkapelitta R5 is what I use in Sweden and they work extremely well. They work in a wide range of temperatures and work well on roads that aren’t very snow covered as well as roads with quite a bit of snow.
I usually get over 75k on my Cooper AT3s in my Toyota, but they've been discontinued.
Had a set on my 2020 Highlander Hybrid. Put about 45k on them with no problems. We have crappy pothole roads and for the beating they took, they held up great. Just purchased again for a passenger car.
Though now I have a new car with SUV version Nokians, they feel much better than smaller tire sizes of Nokian.
Both are top tier winter tires, just Nokian being generally noisier
Nokian nAT Outpost tires are fantastic (for an A/T) in the snow. Not the most aggressive off road compound but even though it's not a true winter tire Nokian still knows what they're doing.
In my experience Nokian Hakkapeliitta are good, but not as durable as Continental or Michelin.
We just bought new ones last year and went for Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 (studded) as we live in the coastal area and we get really icy roads throughout the winter.
I've had a great experience with Coopers in the past, but my last set of ATs only lasted 10K miles before they needed to be replaced.
17 years ago (approx) got Nokian Hakkpellita P2s winter tires - only good for #1 season 6k miles I think - #2 the tires were notably poorer (no good)
