Tires BRIDGESTONE or Firestone

When those tires died, I bought them a set of BLIZZAK winter tires and they're SO MUCH better!!! They aren't quite as smooth and quiet on dry, but there's tons more traction in even deep snow.

But to be honest, the best snow tires are Bridgestone Blizzaks. Hands down the best I have ever had.

Blizzacks are nice on icy roads.

Believe it or not but narrower tires are better for snow. I have Bridgestone blizzaks since studs are illegal here. Honestly it’s like the snow isn’t even on the ground

I ran Indy500 tires on my GTI and they are very good .

I rode in a car with Indy 500s. For a tire that is a REAL commuter tire, it grips well and I ASSUME it has decent life and handles rain fine.

Picked up the weatherpeaks for use in Toronto 2 months back on my CX-5. It's been miles better than than the stock Toyos (quiter, better road feel) and didnt notice a fuel economy hit at all.

Oh and this in on new Bridgestone Weatherpeaks - I swapped out the stock trash - poor ratings even in rain - immediately.

Once I got a chance to try them in the rain, I realized there was a problem compared to Michelin. I was fishtailing all over the place on a wet road. That’s never happened to me with Michelin.

These are my winter tires in Michigan. Seasonal roads only, they suck otherwise for off-roading.
