Tires BRIDGESTONE or WANLI

Liked the Blizzaks years ago in unplowed snow, but around here the issue is more slush and ice so partial to various offerings from Continental with more sipes and less aggressive tread pattern.

Blizzaks on my wrx, amazing in the snow and ice, and handle cold like a champ.

I have never been letdown by my RE-71R's! On my second set and never going back to Pilot Sports again.

On our V90 Cross Country, we grabbed a set of 18-Inch - 5-Double Spoke Alloy Wheel - Silver (Part # 31428595), put some Bridgestone Blizzack DM-V2's (235/55R18) on them. Car is rock solid in the snow.

When I was buying my tires, I did a ton of research and narrowed it down to Bridgestone Blizzak and Michelin X-Ice. I ended up getting the blizzaks and they're really awesome, so quiet and extremely effective. I wasn't just looking for a snow tire, but also one that performed well on slush (because Toronto ????). You'd be good on either of these tires.

I have run both blizzaks and ice I have found the Ice last longer and seem to run quieter they are worth the cost

Couldn't agree more, just swapped to my Blizzaks for the winter, just another thing to not worry about. Got early snow/slush over the weekend, and it drives just fine in that slop. And when the snow gets deep (rarely), no problem:

Some plain steelies and a set of Blizzaks are your friend.

My OEM ecopias made it to 46k Not any abnormal noise, wear, etc. Not great tires, except for mpg. Would never buy them myself. Horrible in any type of snow

My Civic Hybrid has Bridgestone Ecopias. Grip is pretty bad, but they are very predictable, in that they kind of start to warn you when they are losing grip, then gradually go from having grip to not having grip. Very smooth transition and very easy to correct any slides. Have noticed they appear to be wearing quite quickly as well.
