I'll repeat the recommendation for the General Arctic Altimax and currently have them on my 2012 Golf. My previous Audi A4 had Blizzaks in the winter, they handled poorly (soft sidewalls) and wore very quickly but stuck well in our wet snow.
Mine came with Bridgestone Potenza RE97AS, and I hate them.
Our Kia did not come with a spare but with the fix-a-flat can and air compressor. This is the main reason I went with Bridgestone DriveGuards on the new wheels.
I have purchased 2 complete sets of bridgestone RE-11's from Costco and 3 complete sets of Michelin Pilot Super Sports. If they are using inferior tires I have no idea how orgasmtastic real Super Sports would be because they are hands down the best street tires I've ever had.
TSW Bathurst Just picked these up yesterday. 18x8.5 with Bridgestone Potenza S-04 tires in 235/40. I am very happy with them.
I am very impressed with the battlecross x30's. They are very consistent and predictable. I've been getting great traction which isn't surprising but what did surprise me was the tread life. This tire has lasted like a champ for me.
My Bridgestone Ecopia tires (on it from the dealer) have a surprisingly high amount of grip.
My Civic Hybrid has Bridgestone Ecopias. Grip is pretty bad, but they are very predictable, in that they kind of start to warn you when they are losing grip, then gradually go from having grip to not having grip. Very smooth transition and very easy to correct any slides. Have noticed they appear to be wearing quite quickly as well.
Skip the Bridgestone Ecopias. Life span on a LEAF is 20-30k miles. Terrible grip too.
Bridgestone's have been amazing for me. Quiet, great traction in all weathers, and good tread wear. A little stiffer than other tires maybe but I prefer the handling anyway.
