Tires Goodyear or NANKANG

Nankang's FT7 tires are good, cheap and can take quite the beating off road without shredding to bits. You won't need M/T tires for your usecase.

A couple of months ago I put new Goodyear Electric Drive tires on my 2019 Leaf SV + and so far been very happy with them. I think the efficiency has actually gone up about 5-10%.

Typically I don't like Goodyear tires but my Duratracs have been a great AT tire. Zero complaints.

MTR is my favorite off road tire but wear out really fast daily driving.

My DuraTracs seem a bit noisy compared to other tires, but I absolutely love them. Have a set on my Frontier and a set on Xterra. I literally have 0 complaints.

I've gotten nearly 70k out of my Duratracs. I'm leaning towards Wildpeaks for the next ones, but I can't complain about longevity with the Duratracs.

The Goodyear Weatherready is a top tier 3PMS tire. Has excellent traction, for an all weather, on ice and snow, Runs fairly quietly as well.

I worked at Goodyear for 3 years and you are partially correct. Their quality isn't bad across the board, it is just not consistent. Some are great and last way longer than they should while others are just junk. I had 2 Ultra Grip Winters blow out on me a few hours apart (2 days after they were mounted).

Stock Goodyear tires on our 2020 MYLR were dead before 12,000 miles. Been buying tires from DiscountTire ever since.

Goodyears I noticed don't handle the Ph roads too well.
