Set of staggered Bridgestone Blizzak tires, used for one season in Colorado (<5k miles), no longer need them. These came off a 2021 Volkswagen ID.4 with the 19 inch wheels. They worked great for us in Colorado.
General or Kumho are what I've used on my w123s. Both worked fine and were relatively cheap.
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've driven the General Altimax Arctic and they were indestructible. They handled snow/ice very well in my FWD Honda. Since they're winter tires, I only drove them 1/2 the year for 6 years. At that age, they recommend replacing tires, but they were still performing great and had tons of tread life left, so I just left them on the car for the whole next two years. They handled both winters great and were totally fine in the summer.
Currently running the General 365aw, and they've been pretty good. I don't think they were as good as the nokians in the snow. (Mind you, we don't get a lot of snow here, it's mostly very wet snow when we do).
My last set of Bridgestone Potenza tires lasted maybe 15k miles, but we’re totally bald on the inside by the 10k mark or less. Very dodgy in the rain to drive.
