Bridgestone A/T Dueler Revos on my sport ute and Bridgestone Potenza RE92 on my Maxima. The Blowtenzas will not be making another appearance on the Maxima though. I'm very happy with the A/T's though.
 
currently have toyo proxes fz4's but prolly gonna try to pick up some falken azenis sports for the summer

 
Maxima:
Summer tires: Yokohama AVS ES100
Winter tires: Nokian Hakka1 --> best winter tires EVAR!

Camry:
Michelin MXV4+ all seasons --> worst tire EVAR!

those MVX4 are riding on Nissan OEM rims with Nissan centercaps. And those are installed on the Camry.

The irony!

I have those tires, a fair number of people are saying they suck, any reason?? I don't particularly care for them either tho, they don't seem to grip as hard as I like.

My last car had bridgestone potenzas, probably gonna get those again next time around.

 
I have no idea what brand but on front I have ok winters and on back I have very bad winters with a buldge in one of the sidewalls.
 
Other.

Kelly Safari SUV tires, came on my 96 Oldsmobile Bravada when I bought it used. They still have a good amount of tread left on them, when I get new ones, I think I'm getting Yokohama GeoLanders.
 
My SUV came with Goodyear Eagles stock... didn't feel safe with them at all.. I'd slide a bit in rain... even hydroplaned up a non-barrier'd highway divider while trying to get to an off-ramp (that was scary as hell) going 45. Only the gravel stopped me.

I now have the Pirelli Scorpion A/S (245/70 R16s) and I love 'em. Drives great, even in snow.

They suck because:
a) they are wayy overpriced
b) are louder than they should be
c) don't have the best dry traction. Have horrible rain and snow traction
d) while they last long, thier traction characteristics diminish quicker than they should

For supposedly luxury touring tires they are quite crap.

Oh and regarding Potenzas, make sure you buy the right model. Some are horrible (RE90 -- ask any WRX owner) while other models kick ass.

James - the grip sucks in both dry and wet weather. The tires squeal when I go around a turn at even a moderate speed. It's been raining the past few days and highway driving was fine, but city I felt no confidence while driving it in the rain. I felt pretty scared really.
