You really have to be conscious about the type of conditions you're normally driving in.
What my research has shown is that most name brand tires still vary, but they don't perform horrible in any one category. Whereas the the budgets may and often do.
I urge you to do a bit more research just to make sure those tires perform well in the elements you drive in.
Check out consumer reports, Tyre reviews.com (European, but really great information) and just watch some reviews on Google. Get some more data points.
I was horrified to learn that some tires work great on dry, but are just outright terrible on wet roads. This could very well put you and your passengers at risk.
I would consider myself very frugal, and I would agree there are a lot of premium tires out there that are very much hype or provide very marginal differences. But just be careful. These tires are your only connection between the vehicle and the road. Just want you to be safe and save money

Yes, there is some value- but general consensus is that it doesn't provide enough of a value to justify the premium price, when a savvy consumer would be better off buying a cheaper tire plus hazard/replacement protection.
For reference, I just replaced all four tires on my wife's 2016 Subaru Crosstrek for a little over $300 by using tirebuyer.com. 10% military discount + free shipping to local Pepboys + discount on tire install at Pepboys at $16/ea. This was on a set of Ohtsu 225 55 R17 tires.
Ironically, these are the same brand tires that were already on her car, and lasted around three years with no issues and still enough tread left to probably last until end of year if need be.
It's your money, clearly, but I would at least consider other options before you fall into the name brand buy 3 get 1 free trap that still ends up costing double what they're worth.

Its a it more convenient for me so I can just pay them to swap tires, dispose, etc. Just something to consider. YmMV
Head to YouTube and consumer reports. They seem to do a good job doing testing them. Consumer reports even measures stopping distance on an ice rink. I also been using tyereviews.com. It's European tires, but gives you a lot of good advice when choosing tires. I like the systematic way the tires are tested.
I never knew ice stopping distance was even a thing.
Personally, I settled with all season rather than winter tires. Storing them, buying extra rims (it's how I'd do it.), and the hassel of it all didn't seem worth the cost after I saw the performance had trade offs. Like tire wear and such.
There is also something called all weather tires. Also might be worth looking into.

Very good write up, and you bring up some great points that I didn't previously consider.
Where I live, the weather is almost the same for 9 months out of the year.

Thanks so much for the feedback. My wife is uncomfortable driving here in Minnesota. She wants an AWD car. I'm trying to see if winter tires can work since a new car is spendy. We have plenty of very snowy days. I buy all season tires that are rated well for snow, but I thought maybe getting specific winter tires could be even better. I'll check out those sites

Lol. Those are the bottom of the barrel of brands out there
If you don't need tires now, watch out for a possible DT Black Friday sale.

I've been a customer for many years and don't have any complaints. Friendly staff and it's easy to make "free" (covered by the installation fee) rebalance and rotation appointments for the life of the tires. Walk-ins fine if there's ever something in a tire and it needs a plug or full replacement if the damage is too close to the sidewall.
This Labor Day deal is better for those wanting Pirelli tires. (The 4th of July deal was better for those wanting Continental tires.)
Sounds like you track Discount Tire deals in general. Do you think Black Friday sale will end up being better than this current sale?

$202.03/ea Qty: 4, Price: $808.12 and after discounts the price is: $517.36
Looks like they counted the $110 discount twice.https://ibb.co/DrB2Y21
Must be a webpage or checkout setup mistake. Wonder if they would honor the price if I complete the purchase?
