Tires Nokia or OEM FORD
I have used both all-weather tires (Nokian WR) and winter tires (Continental Viking Contact 7). The all-weather tires are adequate to handle the worst parts of Westwood Plateau and snowy days on My Seymour.
I have these on my SUV. They are All Weather with the snowflake symbol. Excellent snow traction and excellent in the rain.

But for the price if try Nokian one.
80k miles and phenomenal in ice slush and rain.
Have an AWD with studded Hakkapeliitta 10 and they are incredible tires. Have them on our FWD van too. They are an amazing tire, honestly its crazy how good they are.
Rwd 3 here with Hakkapeliitta R5 in Finnish winter. Best winter driving experience this far in 20 years of driving.
I love my Duratracs but I gotta say I've been quite impressed with the Nokians on my wife's truck and I think I put them on my truck next time I need tires.
I have driven on winter tires by Michelin, BFGoodrich, Goodyear, Toyota, Bridgestone (Blizzaks), and nothing beats Nokian PERIOD.
Yes Nokian makes excellent tires. They’re just not as well known as the household names.
The Nokian One Tires are marked as a low rolling resistance tire and I decided to give them a try. I drove a 14 mile loop with my old Michelin MXM4's at 35 MPH and then drove the same loop with the new Nokian One's. The Nokian tires had about 13% higher Watt-Hour per Mile consumption.
No experience with the Continentals but I really did not like the Nokians. I bought them because they seemed to be well-reviewed, they were only marginally better than the Nexens in terms of traction yet they were a decent bit louder. Despite having plenty of tread left after 35k miles I replaced them with Michelin Primacy Tour and they’re so much quieter and the traction is much improved. I had a friend who is a frequent passenger in my car comment on how much quieter it was completely unprompted the first time he rode in the car after getting the Michelins. The Nokians were loud from the beginning and traction in wet conditions decreased rapidly as they aged.
