Tires Cooper or Nokia
The first winter I had my current car, I went out and bought a set of generic steel rims and Nokian Hakkapeliitta's. Expensive but oh so worth it.
I also have the Nokian Hakks as mentioned by others.
Studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9, give them their own rims, 4-5 years of always being able to stop, going is easy, it's stopping that matters.
I’d also recommend the Yokohama Avid Ascend series as a good all season, and the Nokian One (it’s a new tire, I’m running them on my fiancé’s car right now and while they aren’t the quietest, if you’re not a car buff they’ll be perfect for you)
I have 17" Cooper Zeon RS3-G1 all seasons on my 2017 hatch and have been liking them. About 15k km on them so far and no complaints. Got a great deal on them at Canadian Tire!
On my work vehicle ( 2011 Ford Escape AWD) studded Nokians.
Really happy with the Cooper Evolution winter tires-- we're on dirt at elevation and wanted a tire that could handle serious snow.
I'm a fan of Nokian WR G4's for year round use. We loved them during our MN winters and enjoyed that we could keep them on all year.
I had a LOT of luck with my Nokian hakka R9s this winter on the LX470, but it's a studded tire. the x-ice were quieter but that's possible due to studs. As of now, I would highly recommend Nokians.
I went from a set of nokian hakkapalitas to Blizzaks on a 2017 Jetta GLI. Learn from my mistake and never do this!!! You only save money until you need to get pulled out of the ditch.
