Tires Uniroyal or NANKANG

If you don't care about money and want the fastest tire get the nankang crs v2s.

I had Tiger Paws on my old 2020 Trax and that car never budged in snow. It’s not even full time awd.

Budget option? Uniroyal Tiger Paw A/S Touring (Michelin tier 3 brand, really solid lesser known/ran but recommend them dollar for dollar over most Michelins)

I usually go for Nankang SW-8, as they are really cheap for how good they feel.

Nankang ns2 is really good!

Nankang ns2/ns2r, lotta bang for the buck

Now have Uniroyal Tigerpaws. A bit of hum but nothing that was too dramtic.

I have these exact tires on my charger except mine are 18in. The tires are coming up on 4 years old with about 30000 miles on them and they are completely fine in everyday driving. If you don't really care about performance then they're fine. They're obviously not a performance tire but for being relatively cheap they are more than adequate in all temperatures and if you drive normally they're fine in the rain. The only time they're kindof sketchy is in snow but as long as you give yourself more time to react and you don't live somewhere super hilly they're fine, especially if your a4 is awd.

Those tires are death traps in snow and ice. No sipes, no studs, hard compound... You're going to be on hockey pucks.

Generally the folks I 4x4 with tend to avoid cheap small company tires like Radar, Atturo, and Nankang because some of em have had bad luck balancing them, even after spinning it on the rim. The quality control of the small companies isn't up to par with someone like Nitto or BFG so you get what you pay for.
