Wifes rig needs tires

I'd suggest Michelin if you want a quiet long lasting tire...

I do not have much experience with AWD cars.  I've always been a light truck and Explorer guy.  Ran Coopers for about 20 years.  Never hated them, but I did get more flats in the hills than I thought I should and I never cared for them in snow and ice unless they were studded.  After deciding to dump Cooper I tried about a dozen other tires and was not pleased with any of them.  Was about to go back to Cooper when our Snap-On guy talked me into trying Bridgestone.  OMG, I could not be happier!!  I even added the Dueler Revo to my big trucks and have been thrilled with the results!

They ain't cheap tires by any means, but IMO worth every penny!  I won't ever go back to Cooper, Goodyear, Michelin or Toyo.

My dad was one of the founders of TireRamma and he runs Michelins almost exclusively, has all my life.

My be cheaper to get a new wife with good rubber.

Tires are mighty expensive these days.

Had the 90,000 mile Michelins on Subaru Forester.  62,000 they were toast.  Wouldn't stand behind them unless replaced with same.  No more Michelin.

That is kinda standard for the industry btw.

I would also state that adding the size will yeild more useful help.
Michelin spends 2x as much on r&d as goodyear the next closest. If the numbers are still the same its something like 4.7% of gross revenue verses 2.3%  mich are almost the most expensive brand out there. Depending on driving conditions it pays off. Bfg is owned by Mich.

Love our Michelins!  LTX M+S2 on my wife's Toyota Highlander and LTX AT2 on my Tundra.  The ones on my pickup are 285/65R18 and they're heavy, but so far they're wearing like iron!  They have done great in snow.  Soon we'll know about mud, but the traction control on that truck makes mud not so fun  .  I got stuck in 3 inches of mud on an incline a little over a year ago with the Lester T Schwab specials.  Had to borrow a tractor from the neighbor to pull myself out.     Durn traction control would brake individual wheels when I was trying to spool them up and get some momentum!
