Take a look at the kumho ecsta pa51. I got a set this summer and am happy with them. Plus they were very affordable.
In the winter im running the newest Nokian Hakkapeliitta's (9 now getting the 10 after the next winter).
2020 Elantra SEL with the Kumho TA31s I currently have 64,700 miles on the stock tires… So far they’re good tires I think.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta's with studs, you could climb a tree with them! By far, the best special winter only tires period, full stop!
I got 75,000+ miles out of my Kumho Road Venture AT 51's on my 2017 Off Road, they are all terrain and 3 peak snowflake rated. I do long road trips, occasional towing of a small trailer, and occasional off roading for photography and I've loved these tires.
Nothing better than NOKIAN TYRES
HAKKAPELIITTA
I’ve always been a fan of Nokian tires. Through research, found what seemed like the perfect set. Hakkapeliitta R3’s. They’re studless tires, but with crystals molded into the rubber compound that act like micro studs. I didn’t want anything that would create much road noise, since road noise is mainly what we hear in the EV, so these seemed like the best of both worlds.
We switched to kumho after blowing through the OEM Bridgestones. Much better IMHO.
I was upset I couldn't buy a new set of Nokians for the Grand Marquis. Been using them for the last 12 years. I had to settle for some BFGoodrich instead. Sucks.
The Kumho are crap in the rain. I was facing hydroplaning issues within a week of buying the car.
The did do it in a decently controlled way but I have not been impressed with the stock tires at all. Not to mention I have 20k on them and about 10% of tread left.
