Tires BRIDGESTONE or FULDA

Blizzak WS90. Hands down, best winter tire for cars.

But recently tried the Bridgestone Blizzak DM 2 very nice ride.

I love the WS80s on my SX4 though.

I have Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 (18”) on factory wheels on my 2024 Taos SE and only once, as I was approaching 50 mph, did I get that vibration. I got out, checked my wheels, and noticed some snow buildup between the wheel and the brakes (rear wheels, fronts were fine). I cleaned it out and the problem went away.

Aside from Canada 2010, can confirm, Bridgestone tires are durable and great. Own a set on my road car. Well priced too. 10/10. Would equip again.

I basically encounter the same conditions in winter as you do. After having driven many years on winter tyres (Dunlop Winter Sport 5), I switched over to an all-season (Bridgestone Turanza All Season 6).

The benefits in my opinion are better responsiveness while turning in (less block movement of the thread) and the better longevity of the tyre, considering it has to somewhat withstand 30°C+ temperatures by design.

Mine came with the potenza s005. The performance was great but the tire wore out with just 8k miles. To give some prospective, I replaced them with Michelin PS4S and at 6k miles they still measure 7/32 from the factory 9/32. The PS4S provided similar grip levels too.

I got weatherpeak 2.5 years ago, and about 31k on them now. Now the thread is about 3/32nd left. Rotated at every 5-7k. Good in snow but so so in wet pavement. Very smooth and quiet even now with such a thin thread left. But very disappointed with the wear.

Hey I had Bridgestone and they behaved noticeably worse in snow than Micheline cc2 or Goodyears I have now, much happier with them than Bridgestone cheers

I moved to the Anchorage, AK area several months ago. In November, we received a couple of feet of snow. I drove fine in the snow with the stock Turanza tires the first day. But lots of compacting, melting, and refreezing made the roads slick as hell. The stock tires were slipping and sliding all over the ice.
