I got some Nokian WR G3 205 55/16 94H XL for my 2014 S. I got these for a couple of reasons:
These tires come in a 94 load range, and because of this, the side walls are much stronger than the 89 or 91 tires that are usually offered for the LEAF. This stiffer side wall is a real benefit for the heavy LEAF and will be much easier on the shoulders of the tire where the 89 and 91 tires typically wear.
And these are great "All Weather" tires... NOT all season. The all weather rating means that they function asreal snow tires, yet they still hold up well on dry roads. So if you live in a snowy area, (like I do in Alaska), you can run these tires year round without a dedicated set of snows, and your performance in winter conditions will be as good as snows. I previously had these on my Subaru as well, and I can tell you from experience that they are awesome. And don't take my word for it, there are some good reviews if you Google them.
And, they just happen to be LRR tires as well and are great for economy.
