I live in Wisconsin, used to switch snow tires to summer tires every year on my 2x4 2008 Ford ranger, I just went to the tire shop, asked for snow tires, had the Firestone ones, and some cheap ones off tire rack, both worked fine.
I've used the weathergrip on a subaru crosstrek before and was pretty happy with them. They lasted a good while and always got me where I had to go. Not nearly as much grip as a dedicated snow tire, but they were run year round and lasted 50k miles, so it's a decent compromise.
I run Firestone Indy 500. But I only drive it in the summer. Was the best Bang for my dollar up here.
Best AT's out there for snow that I've found is Firestone Destination XTs (exculding their AT2's due to your vehicle).
I ran Indy500 tires on my GTI and they are very good .
I rode in a car with Indy 500s. For a tire that is a REAL commuter tire, it grips well and I ASSUME it has decent life and handles rain fine.
Have the Indy 500 on wife’s Vett. Great value summer tire. But for not much more you can get continental ECS02, and those are amazing tires.
The OEM tires on nearly every brand aren’t really good. This is the part where you shop around and find the tires for you. But you can find some really good ones for either amazing grip or maximum comfort.
I currently have a set of Firestones on my car. I hate them. Noisest tire I have ever used, and they are leaving black marks on my garage floor. But they were cheep and that's all I could afford at the time. Never again.
I put Firestone All Season tires on my Wilderness after I got a $600 nail. Biggest mistake. They are crap.
I had the wheels aligned and rebalanced 200 miles after the new tires. They still vibrate and ride like crap as soon as I hit 70mph. Never had that problem with the stock tires.
