Tires BRIDGESTONE or OEM FORD

I use Bridgestone Blizzaks. I can still get sideways when I want to, but grips good when studs aren't an option.

Two good tires are Bridgestone Blizzaks and Continental Vikings.

It isn't the car, it's the tire. I've been commuting in RWD LSs (first a 460, now a 500) for the last 13 years in Michigan with Bridgestone Blizzaks.

Generally, the best winter tires will be Bridgestone Blizzak.

I swapped them for Bridgestone Turanza and after 20,000 when I traded in, they were maybe a third worn.

But if you can afford them, real winter tires like Bridgestone Blizzaks are a huge upgrade. Not just in snow, but on dry cold days where even good All Seasons are losing a lot of traction.

My one experience with Bridgestone was excellent on a Ford Expedition. Got 65k out of them an excellent traction.

I’ve used Bridgestone blizzaks, Michelin x-ice, Michelin cross climate 2s, and Continental VikingContact 7s.

Personally I liked the VikingContact 7s the best; I felt like they had the most traction and gave the best feeling of confidence. The Blizzaks felt very soft, degraded fast, and had poorer performance in the warmer conditions

Am avut până anul trecut Blizzak lm005, am prins temperaturi de +15 grade iar diferențele au fost sesizabile la frânare, aderenta în general, care se rupea mult mai repede fie pe viraje sau accelerare de pe loc.

For reference, crappy and expensive Bridgestone Alenzas (summer tires) were put on mine (21 inch)
