Tires BRIDGESTONE or NANKANG

When those tires died, I bought them a set of BLIZZAK winter tires and they're SO MUCH better!!! They aren't quite as smooth and quiet on dry, but there's tons more traction in even deep snow.

But to be honest, the best snow tires are Bridgestone Blizzaks. Hands down the best I have ever had.

Blizzacks are nice on icy roads.

Believe it or not but narrower tires are better for snow. I have Bridgestone blizzaks since studs are illegal here. Honestly it’s like the snow isn’t even on the ground

Picked up the weatherpeaks for use in Toronto 2 months back on my CX-5. It's been miles better than than the stock Toyos (quiter, better road feel) and didnt notice a fuel economy hit at all.

Bridgestone Blizzaks. You will love the grip they provide.

At 45 degrees and below a regular all season tire will start to harden and lose grip, even on bare pavement. If you live somewhere where it gets cold get the Blizzaks

Riding on Ecopia 422 215 16 inch stock tires. At 34k they just may be a little more audible - emphasis on little.

I have a set of 215/40 18 nankang ns-20's. Tires of course are on the cheaper side but many run them so thats what I went with. They perform fine for daily use and ride alright, however a few months back now I noticed that the driver side tire had some (at the time) small cracks in the sidewall. Thought thats odd but didnt have means to buy new tires so kept driving on them. Of course it got worse and then the passenger front tire began to do the same. This week I threw on a set of steelies and inspected all 4 tires and they all have the same sidewall cracks. The rears not as bad as the fronts but still present. Mainly on the inside of the rear tires, outside and inside of the front tires. Rear tread id say is like 60-70% remaining while the front are maybe 50% or so. Tires are also less than 3 years old with maybe 30k miles. Super frustrating as I have no idea why they did this and are pretty much trash at this point.

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