Tires BRIDGESTONE or Giti

I was a fan of Bridgestones, had some turanza Serenities on my mk5 and before that my old 960 wagon.

Dramatically better traction, specifically when driving through parking lots that were plowed, but now there's 2-4 inches of loose snow you have to go through. Just driving out of the parking lot after installation I had way way better grip.

It's like going from 30% grip to 80% grip.

The improved snow traction is amazing. Living in Minnesota I will never put a tire without the 3Peak Mountain Snowflake Symbol on a car I own again

Bridgestone Driveguards if you want RFTs. driveguards are near silent unless you're in dire need of suspension work

Bridgestone Blizzaks or Michelin Crossclimate 2’s.

Love my Blizzaks. I live where we get 450” of snow.

Just got Blizzaks from Costco and they literally changed my life.

I have run blizzak ws90s. Honestly out of the 3 I feel like blizzak are the best compromise. Snow performance is good. Ice performance is not quite as good as studded obviously but still good.

I have Blizzaks they're amazing. They are also studdless. So they are quiet. I am a serious skier. I have never not made it to the mountain with my Blizzaks.

I've had same experience with their blizzacks. Great traction, horrible road noise.

I have a 2016 Golf S AT, and love it, except for the 15" Bridgestone Ecopias which are terrible tires.
