Tires Toyo or SUMITOMO
Good tires too, love the toyo at3.
Even with the stock Toyos, this car handled like a champ.
Shockingly fantastic in winter slop. I was expecting them to be bad compared to my Sumitomos. Nope. Even better in slop. 100% recommended. Great in the dry with very low noise and super highway tracking. Finally found the grail of cheap and awesome.
Sumitomo is a fantastic tire. I run their summer tires all year around ( In Texas, heavy sedan ) very stable at 85 mph+, quiet and stay planted.
Sumitomo tires wildly out perform their price tag. Have had them on a bunch of cars over the years and have never been unhappy about it.
Toyo AT 3’s for me 285/70-17 anything with 3 mountain snow peak will be better than factory.
Previously, Sumitomo P03 that I got rid of at 35k because LOUD. Otherwise durable and great in snow. A little unsettled at speed.
Major tire recalls in 2025 involved Continental, Nitto, and Toyo for tread detachment/production issues, affecting many truck/SUV tires like Nitto Crosstek 2, Toyo Open Country, and Continental TerrainContact/Grabberlines.
I got some Toyo Open Country AT3s and it didn't take long for me get a huge sidewall gash and I was even driving at reasonable slow speed on a fire road.
