Tires MICHELIN or BRIDGESTONE

Michellines have always been better, but you always want to look at reviews for your specific tire.

With that said, I got the Michelin Defender LTX for my car and I've never experienced better traction, especially during rain and a 2-3 inches of water on the road. You barely even feel it.

I will say, we got a set of Michelin Cross Climate 2s at Costco for our Subaru Impreza and love them.

On our V90 Cross Country, we grabbed a set of 18-Inch - 5-Double Spoke Alloy Wheel - Silver (Part # 31428595), put some Bridgestone Blizzack DM-V2's (235/55R18) on them. Car is rock solid in the snow.

When I was buying my tires, I did a ton of research and narrowed it down to Bridgestone Blizzak and Michelin X-Ice. I ended up getting the blizzaks and they're really awesome, so quiet and extremely effective. I wasn't just looking for a snow tire, but also one that performed well on slush (because Toronto ????). You'd be good on either of these tires.

I got michelin xice3 I think on my cadillac for Toronto slush and snow it's great

I have run both blizzaks and ice I have found the Ice last longer and seem to run quieter they are worth the cost

I like Michelin for nice ride quality tires for an appliance car. Replaced the Pirellis on our Tiguan recently with Michelin Defenders and they are as smooth as anticipated. Big improvement.

I got some cheap $100 tires and even those are better than the stock Bridgestones

My BridgestonePotenza S001 has 12k miles with 6/32 of tread depth. Likely, they grip marginally better than new but I don't have high expectations from this tire anymore. Nevertheless, I did expect a transformation from wider summer tire, coming from horrendous BridgestoneECOPIA EP422 PLUS .
