Tires BRIDGESTONE or GISLAVED

I use Bridgestone Blizzaks. I can still get sideways when I want to, but grips good when studs aren't an option.

Two good tires are Bridgestone Blizzaks and Continental Vikings.

It isn't the car, it's the tire. I've been commuting in RWD LSs (first a 460, now a 500) for the last 13 years in Michigan with Bridgestone Blizzaks.

Generally, the best winter tires will be Bridgestone Blizzak.

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 Turanza AS6 for two years and ~24k km. I quite like them. Maybe the winter performance is not extraordinary, but good enough. Wear is surprisingly low so far. Comfort is average.

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?
