Tires OEM Chevrolet or BFGoodrich
BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT is a much better tire for only a little more money.
Running for 3 years now on BF Goodrich Advantage All Season SUV (not premium, but touring tyre) and they've been really solid on all temperature ranges.
Been to Slovenia and back in rainy May, they held good. Been in all weather situations in South east Montenegro, no problem.
Snowy and ice conditions last winter in Serbia, not even a slip or losing grip.
Even been 3 times to Greece during scorching summers, they were still fine.
Drove a Chevy Cavalier my entire apprenticeship. Good on gas, easy to park, sure footed with Snow Tires.
I like BF Goodrich T/A KSI they are less expensive than Michelin XIce. They have good performance and seem fairly durable
I’ve got a plug in the same spot on some BFGs and it’s held fine.
Want a real out there suggestion. The 2017 Chevy Bolt EV. Kind of a rare car. But my dad had one and it was an absolute blast. 200 hp and 266 ft/lb torque that was *instantly* available made the car way faster than you would have ever guessed. Once you ditched the terrible economy tires on it, it handled incredibly well because all the weight was way down low. It was also really well balanced because, while front wheel drive, most of the weight was in the middle - so it didn't really act like a typical front wheel drive car.
Definitely a bit less grip in the dry than the 215 PS4s, but they're actually usable in the cold, solid in the wet, and at least passable in the snow. I'm not sure how much of the change in handling is down to the taller sidewall and narrower tire, and how much is the tire compound itself.
This is simply my perspective. I’ve had KM3, 3 different times. They are soft, they are more round than squared and performed well but I chunked them a lot using them to climb. One set I had new suspension and forgot to realign after it settled and did a little towing. I cupped all 4 wheels in 1500 miles.
Hopefully they're not as terrible as the KO2's on road
Hated the KO3s in the rain. Did a 1000 mile trip and as soon as I got home had Discount Tire swap them for AT4Ws.
