Tires MICHELIN or BRIDGESTONE

I've been very happy with the Blizzaks on my R.

Whoever said blizzak are terrible in the snow is a lunatic I have to TRY and get the traction control to come on, and cane take corners covered in ice at 40-50mph and the car doesn’t even wiggle…now my preference is Michelin Alpin Pa4 but I had these in my garage from a couple years ago…I bought them then 2 weeks later the wheel got a crack, so I got the Alpin on the 19” wheels and did that the last 3 winters, now the wheel is fixed and the basically new blizzaks are great just got back from 5 inches of snow and ice I’m driving the speed limit everybody else has their hazards on and/or crashing into curbs.

Anyways, blizzaks are Canada's most widely sold winter tires, I bought Michelin X-Ice, what you need to realize is that the cheapest winter tire is going to be better than the best summer tire under a certain temperature.

Temps below 40 will ruin your summers. The material they build summers with is different than winters. Below 40, it will crack and literally turn into plastic. I went with the Michelin CC2 because they last a lot longer than pure winter tires with only a tiny bit less traction on ice and snow.

Am Michelin CrossClimate.

Michelin x-ice are for more roads and packed snow. I have a set of x ice 2 that are great, lots of grip in the winter. Much better stopping on plowed roads, and deeper snow they handle great

I highly recommend Bridgestone Blizzaks. I put those on my stock steelies and bought a nicer set of aftermarket wheels with all season tires for Spring through Fall.

I just put Michelin X-Ice Snow tires on my Fit. Haven't had a chance to try them in winter conditions.

Had these same Michelins on a FWD car. If you never plan to drive on dirt or gravel roads, or in snow ice, they’re probably decent, but not awesome in heavy rain. Consider the mileage rating for Pilot vs other Michelin tires that cost slightly more because the Pilots didn’t last me long.

Honestly I think it's bad business for Bridgestone to ship such crap tires on this vehicle, since it's turned me off from buying any Bridgestone tire in the future.
