Tires NITTO or BRIDGESTONE

I got Blizzaks last winter and they’ve been amazing. Last year I drove across MI (5 hours) in a severe snowstorm warning (1ft+ snow) and a snow squall warning. I must have passed close to 100 cars/trucks in ditches. I never felt unsafe traction wise, I was planted. My Dad also had them on his old Charger 392 years ago and we took it ice fishing. Since then i’ve loved Blizzaks.

I recently put HPAS 205/50/15 Nitto Neo Gen on my NB since i’m on a budget. So far they’ve been much better than expected. They grip significantly noticeably more than what the previous owner had (ironman tires.) they grip to the point i struggle to throw the rear out without kicking it. Last tires I could cut the wheels and just hit it and the rear would slip out but with these even flicking it doesn’t want to break out. They’ve been performing great in corners as well, I’ve been able to take some 10-20mph faster without worry.

so far they’re quiet, grippy under wet conditions & slightly better in handling & ride than the Dunlop Grandtrek that came with them. Haven’t driven them in snow yet…

Honestly, for that run rate, any good tire brand works. Bridgestone, MRF, Ceat.

Blizzaks are the best for snow, x-ice are the best for ice. Depends on how you drive. If you’re late breaking all the time then you want x-ice for better braking grip, if you drive slow in the winter and plan your stops then blizzaks will have better acceleration traction.

Went in for touch up woolwax undercoating yesterday and put on some new Nitto Terra Grappler 3s to replace the factory tires last week.

I’ve been driving a Honda CRV with Bridgestone Blizzaks and haven’t had any issues.

I like the Bridgestone Alenza AS ultras so far, but damn are they loud!! I have a 2018 F150 and they are so loud! Hopefully that will improve with some wear.

2017 EP422+ last long and very noisy compared to defenders

Just replaced my first one bc there was a chunk coming out of the sidewall, wouldn't stay inflated more than 5 minutes. Had about 13k miles on them. Won't be getting them again.
