Best snow and ice tire I\u2019ve used have been Sumitomo Ice Edge. They are studdable and they are way cheaper than the major brands. I\u2019ve got them on my 01 Jetta and 04 L300. I\u2019ve had Blizzaks but they are pricey and the Firestone Wnterforces were meh.
Owner reviews for tires
I have a 25 TRD Sport, went with P285/70/17 Toyo Open Country with Methods. The stock Wheels and Tires were 67lbs the new setup is 72lbs only a 5lb increase, I noticed zero change in mpg, life average 21.7.
285/70R18 Falken Wildpeak R/T01 tires measuring 34” on Discount Tire’s website, clear with no front, rear or UCA rubbing or contact on stock suspension and wheels.
Got some Hankook ion Evo tires for my Model Y. Had the Asymmetric 5’s and they lasted 50k so I’m hoping these last a long time too. Right off the bat they are softer than my old ones but not as sporty. Still a very good tire and can pick up the pace.
It seems like every time I go riding it rains here in Sweden, so its pretty unavoidable! I just wear a rain jacket and decent pants for all of my riding and fear most every root or bare rock encounter (which is constant on MTB trails).
Purchased nokian Hakkapellitta R5's for my 98 ford taurus wagon. I will never recommend another tire, would only reccomend studded hakka's. I drive the 881 up north to conklin and back south to cold lake every 2 weeks (2 on 2 off shift) these wheels have 100% given me a false sense of security on the road because I am yet to lose any form of traction even starting from a stop sign on an incline.
I’ve enjoyed mine as well, and I’m about due for a new set.
But, just tossing this out there, I found they aren’t as grabby in soft sand or wet snow as I would have liked (conditions I find myself in).
They’re hyped up, and I liked mine, but don’t plan on getting them again.
my Cooper Strongholds do pretty well in ice, haven't had much experience with them in snow though.
My stock KO2s are horrible in rain so I have no intention in grabbing another set.
Those tires are mediocre to begin with, Toyota owners have complained about those bridgestones for over a decade now. The 2015+ Camry had those equipped, many reported shitty wear. It's a basic tire that's made for a smoother ride but definitely not made for longevity.
