Tires Goodyear or Nokia

Very, very much a happy camper. Ride is suprisingly supple, I went up in size from 215/65 R16 to 215/70 R16 which I knew would give it a bit of a cushier ride but I didn’t expect it to feel better than the All Seasons, which it does. A little added road noise, slight roar over the All-Seasons but not noticeable unless you look for it. Ride height went from the stock 8.2in to about 9.4in which easily cleared the wheel well with no rubbing.

Most surprisingly though, it feels like it handles better. Comparing it to the high-mile Continentals I had (90k warranty) they’re more confidence inspiring

in turns, not much added lean at all, might be due to other mods on the wagon but

it definitely didn’t make it worse. Tested today at 90F from a winter-rated “AT-lite” tire, I was caught off guard how well it takes the turns. It’s no Michelin Pilot Sport, but it’s better than I thought it’d be. It also took a gravel road I threw at it like nobody’s business. I drove it pretty aggressively through some twisty, dusty gravel and it was planted pretty much the whole time.

The compound in a decent snow tire like a Nokian, Michelin, Blizzak, etc… stays less form in cold weather and will stop better in the winter.

Goodyear eagle ones on the factory 19s. Solid ride, comfortable, and plenty of traction

I've got Goodyear Reliant All-Seasons on mine currently. Got them for $62 a piece last Novermber, and have good luck with most Goodyear and Cooper tires.

Tires did extremely well and im very impressed with the Goodyear eagle F1 super sports, no greasiness, super communicative, and got gripper as heat went up.

If you’re keeping the stock 225/55R17 size I highly recommend Goodyear Viva 3s. They did amazing all Michigan winter delivering pizza, never got stuck. Solid All-Seasons

Winter tires are best in class, their Hakkapeliitta 10 and R3/R5 line is the best in the world right now, their summer tires are very good, up there with the high-end brands maybe not as good as top-end Michelin or Continentals but still very good.

I use Nokian Hakkapelliita R3 winter tires in the winter (in Michigan) and they've worked great.

I previously tried Michelin CrossClimate2 tires, but they didn't provide quite enough snow traction. On packed, compacted snow, I could feel the car just barely sliding if I changed lanes, and I occasionally felt the ABS when braking. With the Nokian winter tires, I never feel either of those phenomena.

I have these on my JKU and they are OK. They do well on snow, but on wet roads they can break free pretty easily .

I have nokian’s do not buy.They are not very good.Get real snow tires if you really are looking for safety.
