No votes for Continental tires? Seems like over the years on the wife's cars (Volvo 850, Honda van and CRV) we got good life, good traction, no defects at a good price point.
Favorite budget tire?

Up here, with WM out of the tire business, Canadian Tire-brand tires, when on sale, are the budget tire of choice for most people. I sell truckloads of ‘Certified All Trek’ tires at our store.
Look at cars in Canada; and a LOT of them will have CT tires on them.

I wouldn’t consider Continental a budget tire. To me Continental and Michelin are the premium brands.
Well Continental doesn’t seem to be highly priced here just a good value
What weather conditions does the vehicle see and your driving style? Checkout General or Uniroyal.
There is no “budget” tire as 20k miles I have replaced them or threw away due noise, wear, poor traction .
Problem is install costs are same budget or best tires.

Michelins are great, but much too pricey.
My Z51 Corvette is now riding on Nitto summer tires, and they are just fine for 40 percent lower cost.

Sentury Qirin 990, (aka Landsail) lot of tire for the price. Good comfort, great milage and wear. Decent on everything else.
Could put something sportier on the Volvo. Like I had previously, but it will still not have great handling so kind of a waste. Just less comfort.

Good success with Douglas Touring tires from Wally World … put them on both Ford Focus cars the kids drive…
