Tires BRIDGESTONE or OEM Porsche

I am very impressed with the battlecross x30's. They are very consistent and predictable. I've been getting great traction which isn't surprising but what did surprise me was the tread life. This tire has lasted like a champ for me.

My Bridgestone Ecopia tires (on it from the dealer) have a surprisingly high amount of grip.

Bridgestone's have been amazing for me. Quiet, great traction in all weathers, and good tread wear. A little stiffer than other tires maybe but I prefer the handling anyway.

I'm on my 4th set of blizzaks, and the new ws-80 are a huge improvement over previous versions. The older tires were terrible on dry/rain with a mushy feel. The WS-80 drive much more like an all-season. I drive aggressively, and these are very confidence inspiring no matter what the road surface is like. I took them out on snow/ice/slush for the first time last weekend and they were fantastic, not a single hiccup on the way to Mt. Hood Meadows.

Best tire recommendation.... Get your self some Bridgestone Turanza Serenity Pluses for this bad boy and you'll be cruising in comfort.

I put the Potenza RE 760 Sport (non all season tire) and I love its performance in wet and dry. It amazed me with the amount of cornering grip. Also, not noisy, and seems to be wearing very well.

I chase PNW storms in a FWD econobox w/blizzaks. No reason to go with studs.

Blizzaks or x-ice 2 are the way to go IMO. They will wear faster but provide superior performance compared to a cheaper studded tire.

2015 MK7-R purchased June 2015, now has 6900 miles with Bridgestone (130 Treadwear-RIDICULOUS), rotated at 6500 at Discount tire, 7/32 in front and 8/32 in the rear. Mostly city driving, only 4.5 miles to work.

My first snow tire purchase was a set of Blizzak WS-50s and I just couldn't deal with the squirmy feel for the amount of true snow/ice driving I encounter in a season.
