I just got some Sumitomos replaced with about 40,000 mi on them which probably still had 20 to go and were still gripping great but just a little bit noisy. They are the parents company of Falken. They are a great brand as far as longevity and grip. I'm currently using Laufenn which are a sub brand of Hankook which cost me under $90 a corner and I am so pleased that I'm considering putting them on my second car. This mid-tier brand has been just as if not more pleasant in the realm of noise and on center road feel at speed than Michelin Defenders I had just a month ago on a car we sold. My Laufenns will probably have only half of the tread life of the Michelins I used to have, but at only half the price and the feel on the road is identical but I'm sure the performance is a little bit less. We do have close to bottom tier on a car that is new to us which is a Douglas brand and it'll be good for the next year but it is an unpleasant tire. It's loud and doesn't feel like it tracks well. But it does grip well enough to push the replacement date out a year since they were manufactured this year.

Pros: great longevity, good grip, quiet, good road feel
Cons: noisy (Sumitomo), loud (Douglas), poor tracking (Douglas), shorter tread life (Laufenn)
Mileage: 40000 km

Cooper Tires

We have been running some amazing Cooper tires on our Acura. I think they have more than 75k on them and we are not changing them yet. They are top notch tires.

Pros: amazing, 75k+ miles, top notch
Vehicle: Acura
Mileage: 120700 km

For an SUV/CUV I generally recommend Cooper Discoverer Enduramax which maybe a good choice here as it has an extra belt layer and is a bit tougher than many regular all-weather tires

Pros: extra belt layer, tougher

I use good all season Cooper Tires on my Fusion and get around pretty good in the snow. Ice is always the wildcard.

Pros: get around pretty good
Cons: ice is wildcard
Vehicle: Ford Fusion

I sized up and really liked that decision. I’m mid though on my cooper discoverer rugged trek. Good wear, lowish noise for a “m/t” (basically at), good not great on dirt, rain performance has been decent, breaking is good, but the snow performance has been just ok.

Pros: good wear, low noise
Cons: snow performance just ok
