If I'm going to hate on a tire, it's going to be Bridgestone Duelers, I had such a terrible experiance with them, that I avoid all Bridgestone and Firestone tires. Goodyear sure got on my E36 M3 list this Summer though.

We drive our work truck a lot, highway, dirt/gravel, pastures, plowed fields, stubble, turn rows, levees, etc. Our '13 Silverado 1500 has 85+K miles on it.

When the truck needed tires this summer we put these AT/S on it. Five punctures, and one bulge causing a replacement in their 1st 4 months. Terrible, terrible, light truck AT tire.

Budget constraints and government purchase agreement limited their replacement options. We very reluctantly chose another Goodyear. So far these AT Adventurers have been a far superior tire to the previous Goodyears. I thought the Kevlar was just marketing at first, but there may be something to it. No issues at all, going on 5 months now.

I have never had a Goodyear tire that I wasn't eager to get off the car as soon as economically feasible.

I had 4 on my Impreza that were fine ... good traction, wet/dry, not noisy ... lasting a long time ... (I sold the car before they showed any appreciable wear [10k at time of sell]) ... plus I got them as a mark down

so I'm guessing that it depends on which tire you happen to get ... pretty much like with anything

Leaving aside the idiotic camber and stretch, the badly-hacked-on-purpose fenders, the fake bosu oil cooler, and the world-blinding light bar, let me get this detail straight:

The guy put low profile dual headlights in the popups, and then purposely adjusted them even lower so they underlap the front bumper?
