Just be aware, that these Douglas tires only have a 45,000 mile rating. Goodyear's Walmart exclusive Reliant all season tire has 65,000 miles and historically go on sale around July 4th. Perhaps because of inflation, Walmart is only discounting the Douglas tire rather than the Goodyear Reliants. So make sure to do the math to figure out how much you're paying per mile.
For example, the Douglas 225/60R17 are $74 and the same size Goodyear Reliant is $117. By the mile, you are paying $0.00164 for the Douglas vs. $0.0018 for the Reliants. It is a close call. And when these Douglas aren't on sale, the math will probably result in a push as to which is the better option.
Personally, I just took advantage of the eBay tire sale and got a pair of Hankook Kinergy 4S2 all weather tires that come reccomended by Consumer Reports. eBay is offering free installation at select garages affiliated with CarAdvise -- in my area that's Firestone and PEP Boys. If you live in an area that gets occassional snow and regular ice, but not enough of it to warrant snow tires, then consider all weather tires instead of all season especially if you don't have AWD. They aren't budget tires. No all weather tire is. But the most affordable options are the Hankook Kinergy 4S2, General Tires Altimax 365 AW and the lesser-known Vredestein brand, which specializes in all weather. There are others to consider, but these are the 3 most affordable options receiving CR's approval. The best known and rated all weather tire is the Michellin CrossClimates, but they are pricey in comparison to these other options.
And why do I know so much about tires? Well, I had to buy new tires last June and this June. So you learn a thing or two in the process. I bought the Reliants for an older Santa Fe with AWD last year from Walmart. I expect to eventually sell it in a year or two. Plus, with AWD, simple all seasons will suffice. And I chose the better tires this year for a FWD car that I expect to give to my teenage son next year. The few times I got into trouble driving as a teen was on ice. So it become an easy decision to get all weathers instead.
Have bought their tire multiples times after seeing their awesome reviews for rain and snow driving and they lived up to their name in Chicago weather extremes. They fit my Volvo S60 with AWD very nicely.

Shorter lifespan and not great in heavy rain or snow. As long as they are cheap enough and you know not a longlife tire then they are ok. Better than bald tires.
