I always like Cooper tires and run the GS4 on my V-70. They are the last American made tire and we sell them at our shop with no complaints from customers.

I've been happy with the Goodyear Assurance tires on my S40. Since buying them, I rarely need to use the 'W' mode in the transmission when it's raining, as the tires keep the car from hydroplaning. (I live in the Northwest, and it's often wet here in the winter).

About 20 days ago, I had the old Yokohama to be replaced by 4 new tires.
It's more comfortable and quiet in the car than before. The Yokohama had 45K mi, and was broken already, and very noisy so I don't like them.
Firestone provided 'buy 3 get 1', totally 420 bucks including road hazard protection, and 70k mi was guaranteed. The brand is affinity, I didnt' know it before this changing.

What is your driving style?
What are you willing to spend?
Do you drive in mostly wet or dry weather, or is it a mix of both?
