Tires BRIDGESTONE or NANKANG

I have Blizzaks on my AWD BMWs right now, and it makes a huge difference.

If you NEED a great snow tire, nothing beats winter forces or blizzaks.

We got a big snowfall over Thanksgiving, I have these exact tires on my ND. They're great. Obviously they move around a lot more on dry roads but they are excellent in the snow. Acceleration and cornering are great and I had no issues on fairly steep hills either. Like any tire in the snow though, you must leave plenty of stopping distance.

Used to drive those on my NA and passed stranded vehicles daily in the same weather

They're great in snow/ice.

They can be squirmy on dry pavement.

I’ve been using blizzaks for almost as decade as my winter tires on my ND. My winter wheels are -1” and the tires are slightly larger in diameter than my summers (~1%). They grip and I feel confident when driving in the snow or rain in winter months.

I had Supercats for a while and they were meh at best but did the job.

My R came from the factory with the Bridgestone Potenza S005s. They're decent for daily driving—good grip in the dry and pretty quiet—but they’re not amazing in the wet.

my Turazas SUCK i got 18k (over almost 3 years) on 80k Turanzas!!!

I have a 2024 nissan pathfinder platinum. Has Bridgestone ALENZA. Dog shit tires. The car has 28k miles. Rotated the tires every oil change about 4-5k miles. And there toast.
