Tires Firestone or SUMITOMO

I got around well with Summos in the winter on my Mazda 2

I've had a FWD Corolla for 12 years and it has gotten me through the worst kind of storms in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and here in NL with Firestone Winterforce tires. I swear by them! I've gotten through conditions in snow storms that even big jacked up 4 wheel drive trucks got stuck in.

I have Sumitomo Encounter ATs that I like pretty well. On road manners are great and no complaints off-road. They don't look as "cool" as some of the other ATs but they work just as well.

I've been pretty happy with the cost/benefit of Firestone Indyhawk/Indy500/whatever they're calling them these days, on the stock wheels. They don't last long (I get 10-15k miles out of a set) but they're damn cheap ($650-$750), and break traction quite easily and predictably, if you enjoy going a little sideways often. I usually am running the Flying Miata alignment specs with these tires break loose fantastically easily and enjoyable for me on that alignment. On a factory alignment though they are reasonably grippy for spirited street driving. Again though the biggest benefit of them is they are super widely available (because Firestone) and CHEAP.

Very happy with Firestone Destination XT. As quiet as all seasons, great snow traction more than decent offroad

I got about 30k miles on sumitomos 285/75/16 snow rated, AT. They’ve been solid

I got sumitomo on mine. Quite. Great on all things wet including light snow.

Fair warning they're sketchy in heavy rain and temps below 40 f

I had firestone put 2 on the front of my 2015 Camry. I put 7,000 miles on them and they are already worn out.

Just bought for these for my Camry and I hate them. The ride is very bumpy and Firestone won’t do anything about it.
