Tires GT Radial or GENERAL TIRE
I've got the Generals on my Jetta GLI. I had higher performance tires but kept getting bubbles on the awful New England roads. I'm pretty happy with them. You definitely give up a little bit of grip/road feel on dry roads but they're comfortable for daily driving and the value factor is nice. If you're looking for something that's going to suit you on a day-to-day or commuter type basis I'd recommend them.
I drive a Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and ran a set of General AltiMAX RT43s to 64,000 miles (3/32” remaining tread). Replaced with RT45s a year ago (13k miles) and they still look new.
Honestly? I've got nothing against Pirelli tires, but the Generals are would be my go to here... They are a better quality tires than those specific Pirellis... Ride better, be quieter, last longer...
I had very good luck with some Walmart bought tires. I put about 53,000 miles in them before I sold the truck and they handled all types of weather and road conditions. Highway, snow covered roads, occasional dirt roads and wet and never had an issue with them.
When I did transport work and needed tires, I had very good luck with some Walmart bought tires. All in I think I was around $700. I went with GT Radial Adventuro AT3 All Terrain in 275/65/18. I put about 53,000 miles in them before I sold the truck and they handled all types of weather and road conditions. Highway, snow covered roads, occasional dirt roads and wet and never had an issue with them. Road noise was slightly louder than stock tires but based on tread pattern, it was to be expected. I would definitely buy these tires again for my truck.
I ran a General Altimax (AS??) on one of my older cars and at the time was plenty happy with it.
I am a big fan of General tires in general in the moderate budget category... they are a great cost to benefit tire and part of Continental tires.
The Grabber HTS 60 is a great tire... as long as you don't have to deal with winter conditions.
I had General Altimax Arctic 12s for 2 years and didn’t switch them out in the summer. Surprisingly great performance on all the dirt roads and still held traction on their second winter season.
Got my car used with a set of them on there(AS-05), they grip really well but they seem noisy on the road. Not sure if it's my car or the tires. They were descent in the snow. I got through a Rochester, NY winter with them on a RWD Kia Stinger.
I wasn't easy on the tires and a 1.5 years in they are at the wear bars.
The General Max tires I had sucked so bad. Alot of delamination of the tread. Some runs I would lose entire chunks of the tire.
