I got falken tires. The OEM Dunlop tires that came with the 2019 was so bad I would step the break the abs would be pumping and I would slide for a fair distance. The falken I get good grip in winter not so good with rain but I can maneuver better in rain even though I slide a bit.
I put Falken wild peaks on my 21 when I first bought it, and just replaced them at 71,000 miles. They still had plenty of tread, but they were starting to dry rot. It was my fault for using degreaser to clean my tires. I put the exact same tires back on.
WRX just changed out it’s stock Dunlop to Falken Aklimate at 68k miles and haven’t even changed it into its Blizzaks for winter. It held up beautifully even when we had ice shut down I-80 and a good portion of Nebraska. Liked the Aklimate so much I got our Chevy HHR a set along with new rims. Daughter had absolutely no issues on ice with them.
If you haven’t replaced the stock geolandsrs do yourself a favor and go get some falken wildpeak AT. Way better tires. Less road noise but more traction.
Get a set of Falken Wildpeak Trail A/Ts and rotate them every 10k front to back. You can run them all year and get 60k miles out of them.
I put Falken Aklimates on my X3 6months ago and haven’t had any issues. Smoother ride that the Michelin’s I had. These are all-weather and good for light to medium snow. I’ve used Pirellis, Falken, Michelin, Continental etc and these handle as good or better. Benefits are that I don’t need to change from all seasons to winter now.
Have the Wildpeak AT3W on my half ton truck for driving year round. Alberta winter conditions included. Quiet, excellent traction, good tread life. Priced competitively as a bonus. I’d be silly not to buy these again.
To answer OP question, probably BF Goodrich Rugged Trail TA. Didn’t last and developed cracks prematurely. Also Toyo Open Country C/T are noisy as hell.
Mine are finished and I've driven them exactly 30k miles.. I've regularly had them rotated, and I kept them inflated as required. Their warranty is pure BS (as any sign of uneven ware voids it). They're decent tires, you just need to know what you're getting before you pull the trigger.
Those oem tires are some of the worst I've seen, pretty much anything would be an upgrade.
They are absolutely trash in the snow and for being relatively worn smooth at this point, they have been noisier than anything in 30 years of driving.
