Tires BRIDGESTONE or OEM Toyota

I went with the Ecopia 422+ on my 2013, replacing my stock tires. Range has been good (if not a little better), and the ride is MUCH quieter than the stock tires. Like I didn't realize how loud the road noise was until it was gone.

Bridgestone Blizzarks winter tires. I drive 80miles round trip to work daily.

I had brand new Destination LE2 A/S tires and was sliding all over Rt.247 one crazy winter night. And then got Blizzaks put on... I hit that same area again, with snow and was a night and day difference, no more slippy slidey fun time for me !!

I'm a mechanic in Canada, I see all sorts of winter tires. Having driven on many different brands and styles, I recommend bridgestone blizzak over all others if you can afford it.

Nokian Hakkas, Toyo Observe GSi-5 and 6, Blizzaks have been the go-tos on all of our vehicles and among my family.

RE71R’s or full Hoosier slicky boys if I’m feeling spicy and really wanna set a PB.

Canadian here, winter tires are good enough for most driving on ice and snow. I've got a set of Bridgestone Blizzak winter tires on my Ford Edge FWD and it goes through all conditions just fine.

+1 for the Bridgestone Weatherpeaks. They are also symmetrical / non - directional so you can have a full size spare and do 5 tire rotation. I run them on my 09 STI in the northeast.

I've had same experience with their blizzacks. Great traction, horrible road noise.

I was unfortunate to receive my GTI with a set of the RE97AS's. Rough surfaces are the worst - makes everything in the car rattle or vibrate. Dry grip is quite poor (as others have mentioned), bad breakaway even at low throttle inputs. At cruising speeds on newer highways (rubberized asphalt) everything seems fine.
