I replaced the Michelin LTX on my wife's Nissan Armada with Firestone Destination AT. The Firestones are superior in every way to the Michelins, and were significantly cheaper. They are quieter, softer riding, and have more aggressive tread. Sadly we didn't get any snow this winter, so I can't comment on their performance in the slick stuff. I like them so much I'm going to transfer them to my wife's new truck (nearly identical size).

I'm a big fan of the user ratings on Tire Rack, thus far I've never disagreed with them. BTW, the Destination AT is the #1 ranked A/T tire.

For the money I think Kumho makes a decent tire. Not as good as some but certainly adequate, I've had them on several cars. If price was my #1 consideration they are hard to beat.
