Tires Toyo or GENERAL TIRE
If you can fork out a little extra, Toyo Proxes A/S sports. Amazing tire in both wet and dry conditions. They’re made to be used on “sportier” drives.
I like my general G-Max's. All season is a stretch and they are a bit loud, but the grip is good and the sidewall is supportive.
I recently purchased a set of 4 Toyo Celsius 2 tires for my 2019 Kia Optima. After living with them for a couple of days, they're good but they have a couple of weird quirks.
Pros: Pretty quiet, great snow/ice traction, soaks up bumps great.
Cons: The compound feels unnervingly soft, to the point it feels like it's running on low pressure (it's not). As a result, I feel like dry handling takes a big hit. I can't speak much for MPG but because of how soft the tires are, there seems to be a lot of rolling resistance.
Toyo open country ct are a super durable tire. I've got 60k on my set now and about to replace. Never lost much tire pressure and I've got 3 deck screws in 2 of them that I cut off rather than plug. Couldn't be happier, great grip and look 275/70/r18
I like the Toyo AT-2or3 good and grippy in slop, hardly any road noise that I've noticed on the highway.
General Grabber Arctic LTs for snow and ice. I also run KO2s in the summer, but they don't have great stopping power on icy or snow-packed roads. The Arctic LTs are just amazing in those conditions, I'm really happy with them as a winter tire.
I like my General GRABBER A/TX. Cheapest of the litter but still does pretty good.
I don’t think I’ll run a different tire on my crosstrek again
I don’t share the same disdain for them that everyone else on this sub though. Our CX-5+stock tires is still 10x quieter than the Honda Accord+Pirellis that it replaced.
We changed our's the first time it rained... They are garbage.
