Tires OEM Audi or Nokia

Do your self a favor and buy a good set of studded snow tires, like Nokian Hakkapellitta’s for this drive. They’ll definitely save you some misery, and help keep you safe

I use OPD on my Bolt EUV 2023 and it works wonderfully so far. We've had tons of snow and all sorts of crappy road conditions lately in Southern Quebec (I live in the country, not the city), so I have a pretty good sampling. Reminds me when I had a manual transmission.

Ours is a tank. Running on Nokian R5s and compared to my old RS5 with winters, it’s as good as the Audi.

I have Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5s on my SQ8. Quiet and great in snow.

I’m in Alberta, Canada, where the attitude towards snow ploughing is “We do it, if we get around to it— could be sometime next week”. The Model 3 RWD is substantially better on ice than my old ICE vehicle, especially with studded Nokian winter tires on it.

Tires (Winter) Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV (Mandatory for Quebec Dec 1 - Mar 15)

I run Hakkapeliittas on my SQ5 for the New England weather and theyre great on mountain access roads in the thick stuff

I’ve run blizzaks- x-ice- nokians. Preference for the nokians but the x-ice is a close second.

Other than that you will go through tires pretty rapidly(30k average) and brakes(50k average)

I got Nokian wr d4 and they were manufactured in Russia around the 3rd year they were dry rotting and at year 5 chunks started to fall off the thread pattern.. which looks exactly the same..
