Couldn't find Michelin Pilot Alpin 5s in the size I needed so I tried the new Bridgestone Blizzak 6s and so far I'm very happy with them. Super stable on dry highways, Michelin X-Ice Snows were a wobbly mess that made me feel like I was in a boat.

Pros: Super stable on dry highways
Cons: Michelin X-Ice Snows wobbly

Falken Tires

Our best selling light truck tire is by far the Wildpeak AT4W. It's a great all around tire that also looks good and wears very well. They are not the best tire in the snow but they still do pretty well. For an all weather passenger car tire the Falken Aklimate is also very hard to beat. I pulled off a set of 7/32nds tread depth Firestone ft140's off my little daily driver corolla and put a set of those on. The difference in snow traction is unbelievable. I drove home from work tonight on 5" plus of unplowed snow and was at times dragging the belly on my little car. It just chewed right along with no issues. With the firestones I still would have made it home, but a couple of stop signs that I had to stop at and take off going uphill would have required running the stop sign and hoping no-one was coming in order to do so. The Aklimates just bit in and dug through everything.

Pros: great all-around, good looks, wears well, unbelievable snow traction
Cons: not best in snow (Wildpeak AT4W)

I'm now on my 3rd winter on Blizzaks because Costco had a deal on them at the time and I thought I'd give them a try. I find them similar, but probably better from the standpoint that I used to be able to spin the X-Ices too easily taking off from a light in slippery conditions, and I can't say that I've noticed that issue as much with the Blizzaks.

Pros: better in slippery conditions
Vehicle: Volkswagen

OEM Bridgestone Alenza tires are known to be trash and the rears were completely done by ~17k miles. I have ~37k miles on the Michelin CrossClimates and the rears probably have another 20k left in them, fronts have another 30-40k left in them.

Pros: Michelin tires last longer
Cons: OEM tires are trash, short lifespan
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 54000 km

BRIDGESTONE Tires

Just before the weekend one of my summer tires punctured. Replaced all four wheels with winter tires, but a closer look at these *two year old tires* has me wondering: How come these Bridgestones are already so worn down?

Cons: worn down quickly
Vehicle: Nissan Leaf
Mileage: 35000 km
