Tires NITTO or Vredestein

I put a set of Nittos on my F-150 and love them. It came with crappy all terrain tires that were noisy and didn’t handle well in the rain. The new tires are far more quiet, especially at interstate speeds, and have better grip when the weather isn’t cooperating.

Nitto makes a good snow tire also. I had the SN-2 on my Tiguan, and wished the SN-3 was available in the US... which I would immediately buy if given the opportunity.

My private car is equipped with all season Vredestein Quatrac 5, and the company car has 2 sets, the winter being Continental TS860.

Nitto neogens. I have 205/50 on my na and they’re fantastic

Without question Nitto Neo Gens. Best tire for the price. Last forever, excellent grip (driven in the winter on my NA6 with absolutely no issues), and super comfortable!

My nitto 555s are great during the summer. Best tires I’ve had on any car for summers

Love my Ridge Grapplers and they have about 60k miles on them.

I just got 285/70/17 Ridge grapplers installed last weekend. I absolutely love them. We've had some very hard, driving rain recently and they've performed fantastically. I've seen a lot of balance complaints with the KO2, but I've seen a lot of no problem whatsoever. So far no vibrations with the Ridge Grapplers as well.

Tires like QUATRAC 5 offer solid performance when new or slightly used. Due to well siped thread lugs and overall spacing of tread lugs, it offers well mannered ride in wet, maybe even in snow. However, based on my subjective experience, after owning many different types of tires, I noticed semi-open outer tread lugs only work until they are worn down to tire bar that stabilizes the tread lugs. Once tread is worn pass that bar, performance diminishes adversely.

Vredestein Quatrac Pro will be my next set. I am so tired of buying Cont, Mich and other high mileage tires that don’t ware even and make noise before tread is gone, then I am stuck with a tire i over paid for and hate riding on. The tread lasts but they never seem to stay quiet.
