Tires BRIDGESTONE or Maxxis

I have blizzak WS80 215 55 R16. I love them. Just waiting for some snow here in the Midwest .But they handled very nicely in a downpour earlier this week.

Maxxis makes pretty durable tires. High roller rolls a little slow but grips well, Ardent rolls pretty fast and offers decent grip.

I am a big fan of the Crossmarks. They are definitely not as grippy as something like the Ardent, but they are very, very fast.

Found a guy on graigslist selling barely used bridgstone blizzaks, I mounted them on my 17" stock wheels. Went through last winter here in the northeast and I def recommend these!

I got a set of Bridgestone Blizzak WS-80 P195/65/r15 tires from costco and I am very happy with them.

See also: reddit.com/r/mazda3 - they seem to recommend the Bridgestone Blizzaks.

Bridgestone blizzak ws80 or Michelin X-ice3.

Our Kia did not come with a spare but with the fix-a-flat can and air compressor. This is the main reason I went with Bridgestone DriveGuards on the new wheels.

2015 MK7-R purchased June 2015, now has 6900 miles with Bridgestone (130 Treadwear-RIDICULOUS), rotated at 6500 at Discount tire, 7/32 in front and 8/32 in the rear. Mostly city driving, only 4.5 miles to work.

I have the same tires and would have to say that they are pretty noisy. I have about 10K on them now and they get louder everyday.
