Falken WinterPeak F-Snow 1. It's one of the cheapest winter tires - about $80/tire in the 195/65R15 size - but test results show it competes well with the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5, Continental VikingContact 7, and Michelin X-Ice Snow, which are the gold standards in premium winter tires. It looks like the Falken suffers a little with dry handling, so just don't drive your Corolla like a sports car. The Falken is still competitive in the wet, snow, and ice, which is where it really matters.
I have been running 265/75/16's SL with 2 ply standard sidewall for the last 30k miles on a first gen tundra. I run them pretty hard on and off road, including airing down. I haven't had any issues and am hard pressed getting a much heavier tire since these have performed so well
I'm on my second set. I got just about 64k miles over three years before they were cracking and down to 3/32. I just don't have the same confidence in those so I went back to the A/T Trails. They definitely grip the road better and are less bouncy.
I used to drive Gislaved studded tires in my Tuscon for 2yrs, great tires.
I highly recommend the Wildpeaks. Had them on my 2500. Got nearly 80k out of a set.
I recently bought some Falken Azenis FK460 A/S and am thrilled with them. Sticky but quiet and smooth. Perhaps a bit less crisp that the Pirelli P Zero AS I had previously but just as sticky when they were new and they are quieter and ride better, should last longer. A softer sidewall should also help off road.
Had Michelin, sold em. Love the Falkens.
I run them on my Ram ( general offroad through fields and turf and towing 12k+ lbs) and Sierra (which I mainly use to get around in the winter when it snows).
I currently drive 2018 XC90 r5 and live in Montreal, Canada with Gislaved tires. There is absolutely nothing in Volvo XC90 that makes it ideal car to handle large amount of snow.
Falken RT615k+ on BMW 135i here. They are toast with less than 5k miles on them.
