Over the last 2200 miles (3540km) since I put my snows on, I've averaged 26.4mpg, or 8.9l/100km. At least half of those miles are in decent storms. I don't know how people get such horrible mileage in these cars- mine gets better than any previous Subaru I've owned, while going a hell of a lot faster.

Pros: better than previous Subaru
Cons: horrible mileage for others
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 3540 km

I had a set of Indy500; they performed well for a UHP for the price, but definitely noticeable difference with the set of Conti ExtremeContact Sport 02s that replaced them.

Pros: performed well for price
Cons: noticeable difference

General G-Max RS or Firestone Indy 500s are solid options aswell with good grip and way friendlier pricing. I ran Indy 500s on my old Camaro and they felt great in normal driving without being loud or sketchy in the rain.

Pros: good grip, friendlier pricing
Cons: not loud or sketchy

Those are good tires but way too heavy at 44lbs vs 24lbs for stock tires.They will kill your mileage and performance. I went with Firestone destination at2 in 235/65 r17. Only a few pounds more (28lbs) than stock and they perform great!

Pros: perform great
Cons: way too heavy

Decided on Firestone Affinity. Firestone's higher level brand, Bridgestone's research and development has trickled down to the Affinity AS tires. You can save some money by avoiding the Bridgestones. But 6 months in, with the amount of snow in Chicago this winter, all I can say is I haven't regretted my choice whatsoever.

Pros: no regrets, good in snow

I went to them for new tires on my Hyundai, my car had 96k on the originals, the wear was even and they still had decent tread. Guess what, they said I needed alignment.

Pros: even tire wear
Cons: unnecessary alignment
Vehicle: Hyundai
Mileage: 96000 km

Pros: none
