I personally run Westlakes SA07’s and will swear by them until the day I die
Owner reviews for tires
I got falken sincera tires for my 15 fit and 13 Yaris. No issuues and they were cheap and high mileage rated. I recall on my Yaris they took a little getting used to as the sidewalls seemed to have more play but with the Honda they felt just like the ones that came new with my car.
Very happy with my X-Ice.
I had a set of those in 31x10.5x15. I really liked them. I kept the pressures around 25-27 psi had them for almost 30k miles.
I've had General (altimax, loved those)
Blizzaks have been great
Once I moved up to Firestone Winterforce, and Winterforce 2 the next year, I was always confident I could keep control in any amount of random mess.
Sailun Ice Blazer WSL2's Their one of the top chinese tire brands. Have had them for 3 seasons driving the fraser-cariboo and they have been awesome.
I also went with the Michelin Xice3. They are fairly decent. No noticible difference to road noise compared to my all seasons. Similar fuel efficiency doing similar driving.
That said, if you're not looking for a performance tire but a quiet, smooth, comfortable tire that holds air and hates to change direction the Cinturato P7s are for you. If you want to drive your GTI like it's a sporty car with some fun and enthusiasm, you'll find that the P7s spin, lose traction, squeal, hate to change direction chatter on braking and generally suck when driving with more vigor than an 80 year old, blind coot who doesn't want to spill his beer.
