Tires BRIDGESTONE or Nokia

I run these on my 2019 Countryman and they work great. Very happy with their winter performance:

We got Bridgestone Weatherpeaks instead. Not a full snow tire like the Blizzaks, but good snow performance for an all seasons set of tires.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3

Turns then vehicle into a snow tank. Incredible winter tires. Always trust the Fins when it comes to winter stuff.

i got the h9s and they're a glitch in the matrix. never slips on ice and snow. awd and studded h9s will give you a dangerous amount of confidence in winter conditions

Nokian Hakka’s are great, they are pricier than Blizzak.

Just get Blizzaks, by far the best bang for your buck winter tire, they will need to be swapped for your regular tires every year, but they are awesome in anything this state will throw at you. I have used them for years through several iterations on multiple vehicles.

Nokian all weather tires are awesome on my 18 Tiguan

I've run everything from the cheapest of cheap to high-end and can tell you there is a difference in performance. I drive a lot, so i now by all weather tires (Bridgestone currently) that are 4 season (incl snow rated).

My opinion is that these are very mild offroad tires. Better than regular street tires with slight improvement for off pavement. But on my Tacoma, the tires would spin quite easily in loose dirt going up hill on an 6-8 degree grade.

I stopped buying bridgestone when my blizzaks was down to 50% tread after one winter.
