Tires Falken or BRIDGESTONE

Stock bridgstones suck in the snow, the best systems can't help wrong tires for the conditions. 18" X-ice3's, have PP and Jb1 power and the traction systems are very impressive in my opinion. The car limits the power aggressively to maintain traction and control even in very slick conditions (good thing).

I have blizzak WS80 215 55 R16. I love them. Just waiting for some snow here in the Midwest .But they handled very nicely in a downpour earlier this week.

i personally loved my falken eurowinters tires...... incredible grip , very quiet and believe speed rating was up there as well

Found a guy on graigslist selling barely used bridgstone blizzaks, I mounted them on my 17" stock wheels. Went through last winter here in the northeast and I def recommend these!

I got a set of Bridgestone Blizzak WS-80 P195/65/r15 tires from costco and I am very happy with them.

See also: reddit.com/r/mazda3 - they seem to recommend the Bridgestone Blizzaks.

Bridgestone blizzak ws80 or Michelin X-ice3.

Our Kia did not come with a spare but with the fix-a-flat can and air compressor. This is the main reason I went with Bridgestone DriveGuards on the new wheels.

they stretch great...theyre no 512s, but 512s are crappy tires other than to stretch with

I have the Bridgestone Potenza's that came with my car. I complained about road noise at 5000 miles and VW said "all the GTI's are like that". Then it got louder. So now the car has 16,000 miles on it. It sounds like a 747 is approaching the runway. I will NEVER purchase a Bridgestone product in the future. Anyone else have issues with the Bridgestone Potenza
