I love my Conti Viking 7's. I'm in Eastern Ontario. Great in all conditions. Firm sidewalls...not marshmallowy(225 45 17). Low noise on bare pavement. Unreal treadware for a winter tire.

Pros: great in all conditions
Cons: firm sidewalls

Heard great things about the Michelin Pilot, I personally went with Continental ExtrmeContact DWS06+ and vast improvement on ‘19 GLI.

Pros: vast improvement
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I personally have gotten over 90k on a set of 4. I would’ve gotten more but I really like driving the family around safely! I had almost 1/8 of an inch before the tread wear indicators were visibly there. But the safety letter near the outer wall was almost gone.

Pros: lasted over 90k miles
Cons: safety letter almost gone
Mileage: 144841 km

I replaced my Ecopia’s with Continental CrossContact LX25 and loved them! They were quiet, wore slowly, great in all conditions (especially rain, snow, and ice)

Pros: quiet, wore slowly

Can second the Falken Wildpeak AT Trails. Replaced Ecopias on 2019 Overland at 21k miles, and Trails were a significant upgrade over the Ecopias.

Pros: significant upgrade
Mileage: 21000 km

Thinking of getting these tires $200 a pop isn’t cheap but they sound like they are worth every penny. Upstate NY - We encounter every season.

Pros: worth every penny
Cons: expensive tires

I tried driving my 2022 on stock tires for a couple days in a Wisconsin winter and the car felt like it was on hockey pucks. If you can afford to do winter tires and summer tires, do it. Bridgestone Blizzak WS90’s and Michelin Ice-X’s are amazing tires in winter. If you want to do all seasons, I recommend Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 2’s or Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4’s for a more performance-oriented tire or Michelin CrossClimate2 tires for the best all-weather performance.

Pros: performance-oriented tire

I had Continental 5000s on my bike at 28 mm, and I switched to 32s when the 28s got old after about 3000 or 4000 miles. I love the 32s.

I should add: they seem as fast and are very comfortable.

Pros: fast and comfortable
Mileage: 3500 km

I've got the same setup and love it. I did have to send one tire back. Could not get it balanced on any of the wheels. Replacement came in and it was great. I've heard that's somewhat common with falken.

Pros: love the setup
Cons: balancing issues common

I didnt have this issue when I was using Michelin X-ice last winter, it was cheaper but I feel its much better.

Falken Eurowinter hs449 is overrated or just plain fake reviews. I slip when gas/brake and even on some turns. What make me feel bad is other cars are driving faster / braking harder and turning faster then me. I look like I got summer tires on.

Strongly not recommended this.

Pros: Michelin X-ice much better
Cons: slipping on gas/brake
