I just put on TOYO Open Country All Terrain's and they are great! They will run you about $120 a tire here in the US, but they are the best tires STS had.

My sorento brakes better, drives smoother and quieter, and is better on those twisty on/off ramps. I have not tested them in the rain or snow yet.

I also plan to lower the truck an inch in the front and back which should further increase it's handling.
I have got Michelin All Terrain tires on my Sorento (stock tires). They are fine on wet roads but once I get in just a dusting of snow I go no where. I always end up putting it in 4wd and then it is great!! It sucks because all of my highway driving is in 2wd and once I get into town and get on side streets I have to run in 4wd.
