Tires Toyo or GENERAL TIRE
I'm running Toyo tires Proxes ST3. Such a much smoother ride than the stocks. Super grippy as well. Wet performance is also great.
General Grabber AT2's but they don't make my size anymore so this will unfortunately be the last set for me. Great tires though.
GMAXs are great budget tires but for only $150 more, the A/S4 are definitely worth it.
I’m a fan of general grabbers AT. Decent price and they’ve always lasted me. Plus the added bonus of 10ply if you haul trailers often.
I recommend Toyo tires, Bridgestone and Michelin. We usually go with toyo but all of the 3 have served us well
I currently have General Altimax RT43's, and they've been pretty solid.
General Grabber AT/x has been fantastic for me as a general purpose, daily driver in rain and snow, and done a solid job in mud and sand. I’ve had them for about 15k miles at this point and will definitely be buying them again.
I ended up getting the Toyo Open Country ATIII tires as recommended by some of the posters below, and my tire shop! These seem to last longer than some of other options I was looking at, and don't need rotation as frequently. They're also rated as all-season tires, which is a nice plus for New England.
So far I've driven them offroad quite a bit in VT on the NE BDR, some trails in NH, and out on the beach at the Cape Cod National seashore. They've handled it all very well.
As far as road manners go, they are nice and quiet, but of course they are a slightly louder than highway tires. nothing obnoxious. They've also done just fine with grip on wet asphalt, and are fine on dry asphalt as well. I don't think they are as responsive as the HT tires were for steering on the road, but they track nice and straight.
I have put on general grabber hts tires on my 09 tahoe. Has anyone had a problem with excessive noise and or even a slight whine when cold and going down the road? Drive for 30 minutes and the whine goes mostly away but not 100%.
Anecdotal, but I bought a 2022 CX5 earlier this year and it came with Toyo tires on it. My rear driver side tire literally BLEW UP while I was driving 75mph to work at 4 in the morning. It was so bad that there was nothing left of the tire except a couple inches of the side wall around the wheel. I had 8200 miles on the tires.
