I have a Corolla Cross and use Bridgestone Blizzak. Absolutely unstoppable in deep snow! Been recommending and using Bridgestone Blizzak tires for as long as I can remember. There’s not a better winter tire on the market.
On our cars we have had the Blizzak WS60/70/80 and Blizzak DM-V2 for 20 years. The Blizzaks have been awesome but want to test the Hakkas to see if they are better than the Blizzaks.
I've used Blizzaks for a long time and they are great. I keep going back because they work great.
The Blizzak we have are 9 years old, but they are still in a good condition. We drive about 10k km/yr. So I guess the extra price you pay for top brand winter tires is for durability. I know there’s also comfort and noise level difference between good and less-good tires, but again I don’t feel any difference.
I run Blizzaks on my XC70 in the winter, and it's a utter MONSTER in the snow. I've embarrassed 4WD vehicles with good tires on snowy forest roads. I went into the mountains early season last year with just the all-seasons on after a minor snow event (a couple inches, plows had been through) and skidded slightly off a plowed gravel road onto a soft shoulder. Never would have happened with the Blizzaks, I'd just been lazy and hadn't put them on yet - they got put on later that afternoon. I don't notice much of a gas mileage hit that the winter fuel blend doesn't mostly account for anyway.
Very happy with Firestone Destination XT. As quiet as all seasons, great snow traction more than decent offroad
I highly recommend bridgestone Blizzaks, basically the best of the best. Any modern car with AWD and winter tires will be fine in the snow.
The Bridgestone RE71RS is a 200tw performance tire. They will wear quickly - meaning you might get 10k miles out of them (give or take).
2017 EP422+ last long and very noisy compared to defenders
Just got these on my wife's cx5 and yeah they didn't feel much better than the blizzaks we just removed. Then she texted over the weekend to say they're the loudest tires she's ever had and the road noise is terrible.
