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 have Bridgestone Potenza RE71R's on my Z and the grip is phenominal. Its a summer tire though and they can be slippery in low temps so take that into consideration
Go with the 215 and save some money. You’ll have plenty of grip and be fine. I ran that size Blizzaks on my past WRXs.
When it comes to brands, best ones are Bridgestone, but remain the costliest along with Michelin. MRF, CEAT and Apollo offer similar cost and have average lifecycle and performance.
My AWD Sienna hybrid is great in the Chicago snow on the stock Bridgestone tires. I love it.
I got some cheaper wheels from tire rack that are “winter rated” 18x8.5 +35 squared setup and Blizzaks. It will be worth the investment.
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
Mein aktuelles Auto hatte ab Werk GJR drauf, von Bridgestone, A005. Katastrophe nach dem ersten Jahr.
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
