I run Blizzaks on the factory wheels and summer tires on my Turbomacs. I've run just about every brand of snow tire you can imagine and I find the value to be where Blizzaks live. The roads are trash here in upstate NY for 8 months out of the year and I drive a LOT.
Whatever you decide on for rims, (I definitely recommend getting a winter set,) you should absolutely get the Blizzaks! They perform better than studded snow tires on snow and ice.
So I switch to higher profile vehicles. The absolute best is my Mazda CX-5 AWD which has sufficient ground clearance and I put on Steelies with Bridgstone Blizzak WS90s. During R1 or R2 snow conditions, I can drive around on icy roads without slipping and without the use of chains. While others are putting their chains on , I'm driving around them effortlessly and in full control.
17 inch borbets and 215/50R17 Firestone Winterforce 2 good solid winter tire had them on my veloster as well.
Firestone all the way! Their Destination AT/2s are great tires. Look nice & ride nice.
Firestone Destination LE3s are amazing! They are more of a highway type tread, so if you're looking for a more aggressive tread pattern, check out their other tires. Firestone All-Seasons are a well-handling option for wet and dry conditions.
Firestone is a great tire brand! I trust them with all my vehicles. The Firestone Destination LE3s are great tires. If you're looking for some better handling in wet conditions. I'd go with the Firestone All-Seasons.
I use RE-71RS on my BMW M4 (3900 lbs) with Autocross since June and about 10 events so far and the outer shoulder blocks’ treads are about 50% worn. Took it to my first track day at NJMP Lighting and now outer shoulder are essentially slicks.
Finally got rid of them. They slide in the lightest snow. They also only lasted me 35k miles.
Have had my CX-30 through one Minnesota winter thus far on the stock Turanzas. Got through fine, but the car was also only about 4-5 months old at that time. I have already noticed some issues going into my second winter, one semi snowy day where nothing accumulated and I was sliding through roundabouts and was a little nervous about going around bends in the road.
