Tires Goodyear or Cooper

Goodyear ultra grip, it’s an expensive snow, but damn near the best on my Subaru

Really happy with the Cooper Evolution winter tires-- we're on dirt at elevation and wanted a tire that could handle serious snow.

On my GTI, I had a set of the Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate. Those were very nice tires. Not too loud, especially for a performance all-season, but very grippy and responsive.

If you want less road noise and smoother ride get some Goodyear assurance comfort drive

We have Goodyear WeatherReady Assurance tires on our Acura MDX and they are far and away the best all-season tires I've ever had. They go nearly toe-to-toe with summer tires and also perform exceptionally in the wet, on ice, and with snow.

I got 4 new Goodyear assurance on my civic for about 450 on some sale, through goodyear's website. The techs fucked up my tpms, but the tires are noticeably better than the old ones.

Got winters and they make a huge difference.

My coopers have always worked amazingly well in the snow, and are quite affordable if timed right with rebates.

Noisier than my KO2s, but not unbearably so.

Vw has used crappy American Goodyear Eagle LS-2 back on the mk4 and b6 passat days. So crappy VW issues a TSB for abnormal wear rates.
