Tires Nexen or GENERAL TIRE

Grabber ATX, hands down. Less expensive than a KO2, but last longer, and are FAR better in snow/ice/wet conditions.

Have them on my Crosstrek, all good.

Great tires for the price you can’t go wrong with those.

They are great—affordable and durable and good in the rain.

One of the best, actually. These are our main seller that we stock at work. They are on my step mom's Sonata, my dad's Camry, and on my Crown Victoria. I haven't had anyone complain about them. The RT43 was excellent and the RT45 seems to have been an improvement in every way upon that, so I would be confident recommending them to anyone who needs a good all season touring tire that performs well in wet weather and lasts a long time.

I had them on 2013 Acura Tl. Handled well and lasted a long time.

A lower-budget alternative? I actually also really, really like the General Altimax Arctics.

I was Super curious about these tires because they look good and second was was the fact that the hybrid community was giving high praise to these tires. 1. They look great ???? 2. The efficiency is indeed high. I went from 3.7mi/kwh to a solid 4mi/kwh. I really like these tires now. The reviews were no joke. These tires have better "range" than the Michelin Energy Saver that they replaced. Some people look down on these "off-brand" tires as they want something more expensive and a name brand. These tires are just fine.

Hankook v12 are OK but are very low grip, and Nexen are GREAT for smoke but also start to shred in 10 mins.

IMO those tires were bottom of the barrel. I would just replace.
