Tires Kumho or Firestone

Firestone Tires

I live in Wisconsin,  used to switch snow tires to summer tires every year on my 2x4 2008 Ford ranger, I just went to the tire shop, asked for snow tires,  had the Firestone ones, and some cheap ones off tire rack,  both worked fine.

Pros: worked fine
Vehicle: Ford Ranger

Kumho Tires

I actually just grabbed a set of Kumho solus 4s all weather for Canadian driving and I absolutely love them on my awd suv! It was between those and the falcon wildpeak AT trail …both had great reviews so I went with the Kumho because slightly cheaper and I think I can see myself buying these again

Pros: absolutely love them
Cons: slightly cheaper

Kumho Tires

Currently have their All-weathers Kumho HA 32. Snowed a ton in BC and having no issues on plowed roads and sidestreets. Handles much better in rain than my OEM Bridgestone Ecopias. Burns ~10-15% more gas in comparison thou.

Pros: no issues on snow
Cons: burns more gas

I've used the weathergrip on a subaru crosstrek before and was pretty happy with them. They lasted a good while and always got me where I had to go. Not nearly as much grip as a dedicated snow tire, but they were run year round and lasted 50k miles, so it's a decent compromise.

Pros: lasted a good while, decent compromise
Cons: less grip than snow tire
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 80000 km

Spend the extra $ and get the Kuhmos. Kumho Ecsta PA51 is pretty good for a budget UHP tire. It does seem a bit weak on winter traction though….

Pros: pretty good, budget tire
Cons: weak on winter traction

Best AT's out there for snow that I've found is Firestone Destination XTs (exculding their AT2's due to your vehicle).

Pros: Best AT's for snow

Hated these Firestone’s on my e30. Got very noisy when older, grip was inferior to a even a 10mm smaller width fallen rt615.

Cons: noisy when older, inferior grip
