All Season Tire Recommendations for 2018-2019

All Season Tire Recommendations for 2018-2019

Nov 29th 2018

All season tires are alll over the market, but finding good recommendations can be tricky. For many drivers, all-season radials are good enough not just for their winter needs, but also to generate sufficient handling and comfort to serve year-round.

Most all season tires are touring tires. They’re comfortable, capable highway cruisers that offer very good response and cornering. Some all-season redials are actually performance tires that, like any all season tire, are rated M+S for their ability to generate traction in mud and light snow. A few are run flat tires (RFT), which can take you 50 miles at up to 50 miles per hour after pressure is lost.

All recommended lines are available used, including many with high tread. Some are available new through TireMart.com. Our new tires, like used tires, carry a 90-day return policy when sold by TireMart.com.

Here are the all season lines we recommend for a variety of vehicle types. Inventory changes daily, so check on this site for availability.

Everyday: Firestone All Season

Its traction rating is A. The tire comes in sizes to fit compact and bigger sedans, minivans and some crossovers.

The tread is loaded with multidirectional sipes for all-weather bite and has traction-generating blocks in all five ribs, including the shoulders. The build is strong, with two steel belts and a nylon cap ply for durability. TireMart.com typically has used Firestone All Season tires in many sizes, including some sets of four, and new tires in several sizes at attractive discounts.

Here’s a strong performer with an M+S rating. Depending on size, the Goodyear Eagle Sport All-Season is rated H (to 130 mph), V (149) or W (168). And some Eagle Sport All Seasons are Run On Flat tires (ROF), which means they can travel at up to 50 mph as far as 50 miles after pressure is lost.

Remember, though, that ROF and conventional versions cannot be mixed on the same vehicle. Some Goodyear Sport All Season tires in our inventory are new, never mounted tires, and many have only a few miles on them, with high tread. The tread has three solid ribs at the center for good response. All solid ribs and shoulder blocks are well-siped for good all-weather bite.
