Tires BRIDGESTONE or LASSA

Whatever you decide on for rims, (I definitely recommend getting a winter set,) you should absolutely get the Blizzaks! They perform better than studded snow tires on snow and ice.

So I switch to higher profile vehicles. The absolute best is my Mazda CX-5 AWD which has sufficient ground clearance and I put on Steelies with Bridgstone Blizzak WS90s. During R1 or R2 snow conditions, I can drive around on icy roads without slipping and without the use of chains. While others are putting their chains on , I'm driving around them effortlessly and in full control.

I have blizzaks they are amazing

Mine are quiet (but then, im comparing to a corolla on 19's...)

I eventually chose Turanza EV tires, which cost $1433 installed at Discount Tires in Portland, OR.

The Turanzas did not get off to a good start with me because they were inefficient: I was getting about 310 Wh/m. I called D Tires to discuss them and their sales guy said to drive them for 1k miles to break them in and then re-consider whether I was happy with my purchase.

I followed this advice which turned out to be good advice. At 1K miles, the Wh/m has dropped to about 280 Wh/M. The noise level from the tires has all but disappeared. These guys are quiet. The quality of the ride is just what I like: firm but not harsh.

The best winter tires I’ve ever driven with are Bridgestone Blizzak

I have blizzaks 225/60R18 on aftermarket rims. Have been very happy with them in the past. We get lots of snow and live on a farm. Have gone through 2 winters.

Just got a whole set of these myself. Holy flexy sidewalls Batman! Comfy ride? Yes. Curb or rock protection? 1/10 ???? Quietness? 10/10! Cornering? 5/10.

I've never heard of Lassa tires. Off brand tires are not exactly well designed and manufactured so they could just be loud as shit.

Yep same thing happened to me, my OEM tires were shit. I had like 16k on mine. Normal driving, not aggressive or anything. Literally only lasted a year. Mine were Bridgestones.
