Tires Falken or Goodyear

So far, the new WR2's are a totally different beast than the original WR's - FAR better traction, braking, and the one thing that really disappointed me with the original WR's was lateral stability in slippery conditions (the old WR's always would slide out in corners without much speed). The new WR2's are a MASSIVE improvement.

The new Goodyear WeatherReady 2 is one of the best rated all-weather tires this year.

I just got the weather active for my Tesla and they’re great. First tire that could make it up my driveway when it’s snowy. Plus they had the highest mileage warranty of all the low profiles at 60k

My Goodyears seem grippier than a buddy\u2019s GTI on PS4s, but I do think their wear is much higher, so probably not worth it over the Michelins. The Goodyears do have excellent rain and cool weather grip though, much more confidence inspiring than Hankook RS4

I chose the weatherready 2 over cross climates because they are similar with newer tech behind them and tire rack had a $300 rebate on them. So far they are doing great in the snow and ice. Much quieter than the oem tires it came with and comfortable.

I would get the Falken Wildpeak AT4W or AT3W if you can still find them. I've driven through 1.5 ft no problem

If you need to remain budget conscious, I would recommend Nexen or Falken. The Nexen Winguard Sport 2 or Falken Winterpeak would be a good budget winter tire.

I had the old clickety clack of a screw in my brand new (by a few months) Eagle Sports. Its quieted of late I think I've worn the head of the screw down to where the noise isn't noticeable.

IMP GoodYear is garbage. I had problems with mine from the factory and they stopped making quality tires a long time ago.

Go Michelin - they grip way better in all conditions.

No, the tread rolled off my tire after 40,000 miles and only 3 years old.
