I'm looking to replace the stock tire on my 2016 LC. They ride nice and are quiet but they are unsafe with any rain or snow unless going very slow.
Requirements
would like to keep stock wheels at this time
good highway ride (95% used on highway and around town)
low noise
off road ability, (nothing crazy, trails, fireroads etc.)
good in snow (DC / VA area light snow <6-8" , not looking for blizzack ability.)
would like to keep mpg close to stock
I've used Michelins in the past and am a fan. I'm looking at the LTX A/T2. They come in a few sizes, 285/65-18, 275/70-18, 275/65-18. They are E rated and I don't know how that would affect things.
I'm intrigued by KO2s also. I'm a little worried that they may be a little to aggressive with respect to noise and mpg. Like I said 95% of use is on road.
Does anyone have experience with both or have any insights?
