Tires BRIDGESTONE or OEM Porsche

I'm now on my 3rd winter on Blizzaks because Costco had a deal on them at the time and I thought I'd give them a try. I find them similar, but probably better from the standpoint that I used to be able to spin the X-Ices too easily taking off from a light in slippery conditions, and I can't say that I've noticed that issue as much with the Blizzaks.

For price and performance bridgestone blizzak dmv2. Hands down. You will have a different kind of confidence driving in that crap. Its night and day

OEM Bridgestone Alenza tires are known to be trash and the rears were completely done by ~17k miles. I have ~37k miles on the Michelin CrossClimates and the rears probably have another 20k left in them, fronts have another 30-40k left in them.

I drove from Halifax to vancouver island BC during the first week of Jan 2025, and it wasnt too bad. I have a 2018 ford f250 with 4x4 and bridgestone blizzak snow tires, and it was fine.

For Illinois daily driving, I\u2019d go with the Bridgestone WeatherPeak out of the three you listed it\u2019s been the most consistent in wet + light-snow grip and rides smoother than the Contis or the BFGs. I swapped to WeatherPeaks earlier this year and they\u2019ve handled Midwest rain and early flurries way better than my old set.

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.

I've had Hakkas, X-Ice and Blizzaks.

Blizzaks seemed to degrade the worst of the bunch and performance fell off faster than the X-ice and hakkas.

Do not get Bridgestone. Mine are down to 5/32 after 20k miles and multiple replacements for leaks with no screws or other foreign bodies

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.
