Tires BRIDGESTONE or Shinko

blizzaks are the best in my eyes. have also used michelin x-ice, pretty similar results.

Bought the Blizzak WS90 a couple weeks ago from my Volkswagen dealer as part of the "Buy 3, get 4th for $1" promotion they had in October. They were cheaper than anyone else for the tires even before they threw in the 4th one for $1, so total price for the tires mounted and balanced was $726.

I've put Blizzaks on all of my vehicles, including my '24 Kona. They are fantastic studless snow tires.

I've run the Bridgestone weather peaks on my FWD accord in 2 winters, they worked great. Did some insanely sketchy stuff and never felt like I was out of control.

I have gone from the Bridgestone Turansa All Season 6 and they have been great so far and a bit cheaper than the Michelins.

One recent set of tires (Bridgestone Potenza Sports - AMAZING!) less than a year ago, new brakes all around approximately 6 months ago.

I had both the Turanza EL440 and those exact Firehawk tires. The Turanza I had would have lasted maybe 55k or 60k if it wasn't for me getting one damaged from a road hazard.

I use RE-71RS on my BMW M4 (3900 lbs) with Autocross since June and about 10 events so far and the outer shoulder blocks’ treads are about 50% worn. Took it to my first track day at NJMP Lighting and now outer shoulder are essentially slicks.

Have had my CX-30 through one Minnesota winter thus far on the stock Turanzas. Got through fine, but the car was also only about 4-5 months old at that time. I have already noticed some issues going into my second winter, one semi snowy day where nothing accumulated and I was sliding through roundabouts and was a little nervous about going around bends in the road.

The ecopias are garbage.
