BRIDGESTONE Tires

Get Bridgestone Blizzak WS-90 for cars, DM-V2 for SUVs. Don't buy "performance" snow tires, they aren't real snow tires.

Pros: good for snow
Cons: not performance tires
Part number: DM-V2

MICHELIN Tires

I switched out to Cross Climate 2s , from Connecticut up to Portland was probably  some of the worst snow I've ever had to drive in. They felt Incredible. I drive on the highway every day here and in thunderstorms it's nothing but confidence.

Pros: felt incredible

Nokia Tires

Rating 4.0

I've had the Nokian WRG models for the past 10 years and there's always been a song and dance with each model I tried. The WRG3 were excellent in the snow but the treadwear and dry performance was average (Enough for my driving needs, however). The WRG4 were slightly worse in the snow compared to the WRG4 (Still decent) but leaps better in dry performance and rain. The problem with the WRG4 was the susceptibility to dry rot and overall "wear" from normal driving. They have been punctured, misshapen, and suffered "premature" treadwear compared to what was advertised as the expected tread-life of the tire. But given how well they perform in my 4-season climate state, I would rate them highly. Tire noise is minimal, performance all around is outstanding, and minimal diminishing of performance through treadwear.

Pros: minimal tire noise, outstanding performance
Cons: susceptible to dry rot, premature wear

Maxxis Tires

Rekon Race is super fast if it has enough traction for you. If not, Rekon isn't a bad tire to try. Not as fast, but it won't give out when you push it too hard.

Pros: not bad tire
Cons: not as fast

I drove through ice and snow with the GTs before switching to GO15s. I was pleasantly surprised.

Goodyear Tires

It's the cheapest tire that's kept in stock at my Sam's club. There are probably longer lasting budget tires, but there are far worse.

They are a softer rubber with less tread than the other Goodyear options. So they must be rotated and maintained or you won't have good mileage out of them.

Alignment, air pressure, and general maintenance will cause tire issues regardless of the tire type though. So again...it's a very average cheap tire.

Pros: average cheap tire
Cons: softer rubber, less tread

Pirelli Tires

I hated the Pirellis on my M3P, and only got ~4500 miles on the rear due to an absolute sh*t alignment from the factory. Plus there is no treadwear warranty on the Pirelli. Ferrari forums will attest that these tires are generally horrible on life. Swapped the rears for Michelin PS4 summer tires (they also have an EV version with the foam to help with noise, and have a treadwear warranty).

Pros: treadwear warranty
Cons: horrible on life
Mileage: 4500 km
