Tires Firestone or Cooper
I've used the weathergrip on a subaru crosstrek before and was pretty happy with them. They lasted a good while and always got me where I had to go. Not nearly as much grip as a dedicated snow tire, but they were run year round and lasted 50k miles, so it's a decent compromise.
Copper rugged trek. Have them on my 2500 duramax. Definitely like better them better then ko2s and dura tracks.
I run Firestone Indy 500. But I only drive it in the summer. Was the best Bang for my dollar up here.
Best AT's out there for snow that I've found is Firestone Destination XTs (exculding their AT2's due to your vehicle).
Cooper Endeavor Plus are some pretty good tires, I put a set on our AWD Equinox back in June, I'm happier with these than the Michelin Latitudes they replaced, and they are pretty good on slippery roads. I tested them last night on an icy spot during a snow storm and the ABS didn't kick in until well past what I normally brake at on icy roads.
I had cooper AT for 30k on my Tacoma (truck was totaled) then put the Toyo AT on my current Tacoma with about 35k on them.
Cooper was smoother and better for on road driving but the Toyo was the clear winner off road.
I'm now in the Cooper (Discoverer) tire camp on this one. Quiet, perform great on roads and fine for light/medium off-road and they look good, and Made in America!
I ran 2 sets of Cooper on my 2010 Tacoma and really liked them. Just put a set of the new Cooper Road and Trail AT on my 21 Tacoma. They have a more aggressive tread but are quiet on the pavement if that is a concern.
Firestone fire hawks, summer tire, but all four was around $600
I'd steer clear of the Cooper Discoverer. I had a set that did not seem to last as long compared to the Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs.
