Tires BRIDGESTONE or Cooper

I ran Duratracs on my truck for a few seasons and they did fine in the winter. Last season I got a set of Blizzaks for the winter and they're game changing! The Duratracs were good in the winter but the Blizzaks are insanely good! You can't beat a dedicated set of winter tires in my opinion!

I’ve run both KO2’s and Blizzaks for the winter on my truck and I travel to the mountains regularly. I fully recommend spending the extra money for a proper winter tire set. The KO2’s weren’t bad, but its night and day compared to the blizzaks

As for tires I would recommend 2024 stock for better brands like Bridgestone. Chinese tires will cause noise and easily a 10% drop in fuel economy. I've personally experienced this.

All about the Blizzaks. They make driving safer, but also FUN.

Should be able to find michelin X-ice non studded and studded, then a 3/4-1 ton truck I can recommend the cooper snow claws are great, add studs if you want for extra ice bite.

I have Bridgestone All Season 6 on my car and they are extremely good on all types of roads, at freezing temperatures, and on wet roads. Can’t think of a single bad thing to say about them.

Can't speak on Seattle, but I had a set of Discoverer AT3 XLTs on my Dakota and my Sierra and loved em. Never had an issue. Plus they were made in thevUSA which was a plus in my mind.

I had 10 year old blizzaks one time that were always stored indoors. Threw them on and they work as in they hold air. But very squirrly even on damp pavement in the winter.

I just installed these on my sequoia less than a week ago and the balance feels off already . They have what feels like flat spots with pretty good shaking for the first 5-10 minutes after cold start driving . Once tires are warmed up it almost goes away .

For whatever reason my Bridgestone tires always lasted half of their warranty if that, and generally sucked all around.
