Tires Firestone or Sailun
They have low rolling resistance according to Discount Tires tests, are light, and still grip well off road
I have Firestone Weathergrip all-weather tires in my escape and they have been just fine driving the past 3 winters in Calgary, with the odd trip out to Banff. I would say they are only questionable once the weather hits -30’s. Other than that they have been comparable to my blizzaks.
Firestone weathergrip on a Ford ecosport and they work well. Ive done Banff on snowy days and down to Radium as well .As always drive with extra caution.
I've been getting good service, tires and otherwise, from Firestone for literally decades. Many locations for ongoing service needs and access to history, good road hazard warranty protection, relatively good with appointment timing.
They were both originally Sailun Inspire 215/55R17 touring all-season. They replace with with a Sailun Inspire 215/55R17 XL. The XL has a different load weight and a different PSI. From my research online, this could be caused by the tire speeds not being the same and the tires being mismatched. Does this seem possible to you? I could call the tire place and ask if they'd honor a replacement because they put a non-matching, non-compatible tire on the car... It's essentially new as I've only driven maybe 500 miles max on that tire.
I have a car that only gets used 3x a month at the most. Sailun Atrezzo Elite! Took it to La Union during a heavy downpour and it was also fine. Came from Arivos but the sidewall is too soft imo
I'm currently running Firehawk Indy 500 Performance tires as all seasons and they do well enough in small amounts of snow
Put these on my Tundra recently. Tire looks great but def a bit noisier than the Firestones.
Worst tires I have ever purchased. Snow traction was very good for an all season, but these should be marketed as a snow tire. The first set wore out in 13500 miles (in part due to a slight misalignment), and the second set are near garbage after 23000 miles. Most frustrating, is that they have cracked in between the tread. Firestone offered a measly discount as a warranty claim for the first set, I think $15 per tire. Spend the extra money and get a better set of all seasons.
I have these on my RAM 1500 and they spin on wet pavement even with care on the throttle.
