Tires BRIDGESTONE or FEDERAL

Used to drive those on my NA and passed stranded vehicles daily in the same weather

They're great in snow/ice.

They can be squirmy on dry pavement.

I’ve been using blizzaks for almost as decade as my winter tires on my ND. My winter wheels are -1” and the tires are slightly larger in diameter than my summers (~1%). They grip and I feel confident when driving in the snow or rain in winter months.

I run the WS90 215/45-17 on my ND. Works great & not a run flat. Extra diameter is negligible.

I have Bridgestone Blizzaks , and although I could probably get similar performance from some all-seasons with aggressive tread, I’ll admit I understand the hype over winter tires now.

Looking forward to the TireRack closeout sale on the RSs.

Also wonder if these will be as stiff as the Sport Rs since it mentioned these are stiffer than the RSs

Bridgestone - from a handling perspective they are great - from a road noise perspective - they are a bit loud. I won't buy them again, but I'm certainly not throwing them away.

I like the Bridgestone Alenza AS ultras so far, but damn are they loud!! I have a 2018 F150 and they are so loud! Hopefully that will improve with some wear.

We put a set of these on our 05 XC70 last year. 11K miles later they are down to 4/32 - 5/32. The tread wear is indeed terrible on these.

my Turazas SUCK i got 18k (over almost 3 years) on 80k Turanzas!!!
