Tires BRIDGESTONE or GISLAVED

I have 15s on my Jetta and run Bridgestone Blizzak WS-90s on it.

After i got a bit of use out of them i got a set of bridgestones. I cant remember what ones exactly but they really didn't cost all that more than the cheapest tires i could find. The difference was night and day. Car was much quieter at motorway speeds, felt a lot more planted to the road and more importantly felt much less skiddish in the rain. Made the car feel completely different.

Continental or Michelin, all season or summer tires. Bridgestone Blizzak for winters. Never had anything else.

For snow tires Blizzaks are remarkable but they are soft/squishy. Since Denver gets warm and sunny frequently during the winter, if it's only car I wouldn't get these if the intent is to leave them on for the season - performance and handling aren't, and wear is

I like Bridgestone. Never had Goodyears, but I would only get them for specialty purposes (racing, off-roading), not all-year regular passenger car tires.

I like my Blizzaks. They've gotten me through some dicey whiteouts and snow storms.

Wife and son drive Blizzaks - she on her 4Runner here in New England; son who lives in Denver and does a ton of snowboarding (Jetta). Both very happy with them.

We have Blizzaks WS90s on our CX5. They were on our Highlander before that. This will be season four on them and they will be replaced because of age, not wear. I love the Blizzaks and will buy them again for sure. Great ride, great grip in all conditions, and surprising longevity.

I got some cheap $100 tires and even those are better than the stock Bridgestones

A friend of mine put a set of those on her Mazda5, in 16\". While I didn't find any issues with it not tracking straight, they did wear quickly, and yet somehow had very little traction. I'm talking \"light them up the whole way through an intersection in a stock Mazda5\" levels of non-grip. Garbage tires.
