Tires BRIDGESTONE or GENERAL TIRE

I swapped them for Bridgestone Turanza and after 20,000 when I traded in, they were maybe a third worn.

But if you can afford them, real winter tires like Bridgestone Blizzaks are a huge upgrade. Not just in snow, but on dry cold days where even good All Seasons are losing a lot of traction.

My one experience with Bridgestone was excellent on a Ford Expedition. Got 65k out of them an excellent traction.

I have Bridgestone Potenza RE71R's on my Z and the grip is phenominal. Its a summer tire though and they can be slippery in low temps so take that into consideration

My wife's Audi has unstoppable General Altimax Artic claw studded. Also a great tire and less expensive than hakkas or Michelin.

Go with the 215 and save some money. You’ll have plenty of grip and be fine. I ran that size Blizzaks on my past WRXs.

When it comes to brands, best ones are Bridgestone, but remain the costliest along with Michelin. MRF, CEAT and Apollo offer similar cost and have average lifecycle and performance.

I currently have Bridgestone turanzas. They pretty good in wet/dry but terrible in the snow.

the stock Turanzas (summer) are so crappy that the soft winter tires feel a lot more controlled and don’t steer by themselves like the Turanzas do.

Just before the weekend one of my summer tires punctured. Replaced all four wheels with winter tires, but a closer look at these *two year old tires* has me wondering: How come these Bridgestones are already so worn down?
