Tires BRIDGESTONE or Nokia

First snowfall here in Toronto, ON on new years eve and they did not disappoint. +1 on the break in, as the tires began to come in on their own with the added kms. Also, nvh is simply superb, these are the quitest tires I have ever driven

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.

I have nokian outpost all terrains on my rig. I love the way they look.

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.

Just installed the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV tire. They come with the right load range and speed rating and are surprisingly quiet on the road. I don't have but a few miles on them, but they look good and fit nicely though at 33" instead of 34".

I noticed a small (5-6%) loss when I put Nokian ones on but I only have about 1000km on them.

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.
