Tires BFGoodrich or Nokia
Highly recommend the AW01. I just put my second set of these AW01s on my Ford Fusion after previously having Toyo celsius all weathers. They ride far better than the Toyos. I got almost 60k miles out of my first set yet only 35k out of the Toyos. Amazing in snow and rain here in northeast.
In winter we run studded Nokians. Just incredible.
BF Goodrich tires have a compound that is oustanding in the snow, even their non-snow-specific tires are excellent in the snow, due to the compound.
I have Nokian R3 on the Sportwagen and Michelin X-Ice Snow (OEM) on the V60 here in Canada. Once I need to change, will likely go with Nokian. More quiet, comfortable and better on deeper snow.
I have the r5s on my xc60, best winter tires I’ve ever had.
I have Nokian Snowproof 2s on mine, and they're really good.
I have Nokian Hakkapelitta 9 on my Volvo and they’re great.
I loved my Nokian Winter tires on my old 3000 GT VR4. That thing was unstoppable. They are noisy on dry roads though.
They are good tires. They are also completely over-rated, and over-priced.
Just wanted to put this out there on my experience with the BF Goodrich Advantage Control tires I purchased from Costco. Bought the BFG tires with 60k on my car. I now have 118k. At 110k I noticed a roaring sound coming from my front end and thought it might be a front wheel bearing. Not the case. Noticed that on the outside tread of all the tires, about every third knobby, was worn greater than the others. Always maintained the proper PSI and rotated every 5k miles.
