I had a set on my civic before I sold it and honestly they were great. I felt confident cornering with them and they very rarely chirped because they had such good grip!
Owner reviews for tires
Firestones will have the best handling characteristics of the 3 options for spirited driving. Michelens the worst.
Get the michelins. Best tire. Smooth, quiet, long lasting, great warrenty, great in rain & snow.
Ive been running the generals for ever. Just got a set of the arctic 12s mounted for this winter. Overall design doesnt seem to have changed much since around 2012 and they have always been absolute champs in deep snow for me.
I got a good deal on new Goodyear Winter Commands at end of season in the spring, so I’ll be trying those.
I went down a size to 17 inch and got the Michelin x ice snow. I believe these and the blizzak ws90 are the top rated so get whatever is the cheaper option or has stock.
I've always gone Blizzaks. They have been a phenomenal tire when it comes to driving in blizzard like conditions. Hell I was going 70 during a blizzard on a freeway when I had my cobalt in high school with blizzaks.... probably not the best decision back then, but they got my younger self home at the end of the day while many others were in the ditch.
I'm running a set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season tires. They've been really great in dry and wet, and were priced very reasonably.
Used these on my explorer. Had to replace 3 in the first 3 months. After that, had no problems for 4 years. Had some on my f150, and swapped them for some nitto grapplers and wished I didn't. 95% of my truck driving is on the freeway. They are just so loud and the mpg is 2 to 3 mpg less. The defenders did so much better in the snow on paved roads.
I have a ‘99 Fireblade with a 16” front wheel rather than the 17” which is normal now. It is more likely to shake its head when going over a bump, banked over at high speed. It is also difficult or impossible to recover from a front wheel slide which would be recoverable on other bikes.
