Tires BRIDGESTONE or Goodyear

I got her **\*\*Goodyear Winter Commander Studded Tires\*\***. Now I still cringe and cry and ask to get off the ride. And there are finger print marks in the dash from my death grip. But that being said, even in the crazy conditions we have had, come ice or snow or other Winnipeg Drivers, she has yet to find a situation where the tires break loose under hard breaking.

Couldn't agree more, just swapped to my Blizzaks for the winter, just another thing to not worry about. Got early snow/slush over the weekend, and it drives just fine in that slop. And when the snow gets deep (rarely), no problem:

Some plain steelies and a set of Blizzaks are your friend.

I had the Bridgestone 970ASes. They have incredible consistency which is the huge plus over a straight summer needing warmup before it really sticks. Wet grip is almost the same as dry. They were the best tires I had on my caravan and golf, you can get by a winter with them if you don't have a second set of wheels.

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

I've never regretted buying the best tires I can afford. Often Michelin and Goodyear, but sometimes others too.

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.
