I've put well over 50k miles on mine. Currently I'm right around 5/32nds maybe closer to 4. They did great in snow and rain up until this past winter and spring. Outside of thinking I had a bad wheel bearing, I'm thinking I'm starting to hear some more road noise. It's been relatively a great tire. They've worn evenly and didn't seem to effect any fuel economy.

Pros: great in snow and rain, worn evenly
Cons: road noise increasing
Mileage: 80467 km

Put 215/65/16 Wildpeak Trails on my 2007 x2.5 last week and have similar sentiments as you. Big slower off the line and a bit stiffer but overall really happy so far. Got to hit a long gravel road out hiking this past weekend and the ride felt great. My old michellins would have me fishtailing on a corner over 50km/h, was able to take same corners at 80km/h with confidence.

Pros: ride felt great
Cons: slower off the line
Vehicle: Subaru

I’ve got Wildpeak AT trails on my lifted bugeye and I love them! I got them back in November and took them in snow, mud, rocks, gravel, and pavement and was so impressed. They gripped so well I was able to pull my friend’s 4Runner out of a snowy ditch in my little NA Impreza! I cannot recommend these tires enough! They’re also pretty quiet on the road and are totally comfortable to daily on pavement.

Pros: gripped very well
Cons: none

I use General RT43's on all my cars. Good budget all season that is also (relatively) good in snow. Not pilot sports, but dont drive like an idiot and they won't do anything funny to you. Dealt with everything from a foot of snow to hydroplaning conditions, never had them do anything scary to me.

Wear is good, grip is good, handles a variety of weather conditions well enough, and never had a manufacturing defect on the 16 tires ive owned. IMO from the research ive done and my experience, they are the bang for the buck of any tire out there.

Pros: good grip, good wear

Yes, they are great tires. I currently run General Grabber ATXs on my truck and have ran General G-MAX performance tires on a previous car without issues.

Pros: great tires, no issues

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I wouldn’t have any hesitations buying General Tires. They are made and distributed by Continental tire, which is generally a reputable brand. Have had experience with both their all season and winter tires in the past and never ran into any issues with them. I used the RT43, G-Max and Altimax Arctic with no problems. There are certainly much worse tires out there, these ones are a good buy.

Pros: good buy, no issues

I have the Wildpeaks and love them cause they are pretty damn great for just about any occasion or scenario. Between Subaru's symmetrical AWD and the Wildpeaks, it Handled it pretty damn well. I was super impressed with how well my car handled it.

Pros: great for any scenario
Vehicle: Subaru

I currently have a set of Falken's 225-40-18 and I must say that I have gotten about 23k out of them and at about the 20k the tires had cracks all over, the handling wasnt great but wasnt bad, they are not noisy in my opinion.

Pros: not noisy
Cons: cracks all over, handling not great
Mileage: 23000 km

Cons: starting to slip
