after talking to many people I think I’m going to go with a set of General Altimax’s.

The Altimax’s are all-season tires aren’t they? My mom has them on her subie. Haven’t heard pops or her complaining. I have Dunlop Winter Sport M3 3D’s on mine. No issues in any of the weather we’ve had. Although she doesn’t like turns onto streets too much (90%) in the slush (today). But just general driving and steering, no issues. ---
