Tires Pirelli or BRIDGESTONE

I run Blizzaks on my XC70 in the winter, and it's a utter MONSTER in the snow. I've embarrassed 4WD vehicles with good tires on snowy forest roads. I went into the mountains early season last year with just the all-seasons on after a minor snow event (a couple inches, plows had been through) and skidded slightly off a plowed gravel road onto a soft shoulder. Never would have happened with the Blizzaks, I'd just been lazy and hadn't put them on yet - they got put on later that afternoon. I don't notice much of a gas mileage hit that the winter fuel blend doesn't mostly account for anyway.

I highly recommend bridgestone Blizzaks, basically the best of the best. Any modern car with AWD and winter tires will be fine in the snow.

I once drove down birch road on a bad ice day with my blizzaks on, EIGHT cars had slid off into the steep ditches some in chain reactions to others getting stuck or losing traction, even a tow truck was already stuck, but I was able to idle on through with plenty of traction on blizzaks. They are cheaper than a deductible and physical health and safety is priceless. If you can afford them buy them.

I run Blizzaks all winter on 18" wheels. I ended up with those because when I bought the vehicle in Nov 2015 I asked for snow tires, because Alaska. Well, the dealer didn't have any in 20", in fact the whole town was sold out of them. The dealer made us a deal with new wheels and snow tires in 18". It has been handy, my husband swaps them in the driveway and I'm only on my second set of Blizzaks.

I put snow tires on my stock Mitsubishi Evo wheels for a weekend in Tahoe. All season tires didn't work, but wow the Bridgestone Blizzaks were magic even on an AWD 400 hp car

I run Bridgestone Potenzas on my ‘05 987.1.

They have been great.

Ive been using pirelli allseason sf3. Been doing good things for me. Took me to austria in winter and italy in summer

My last car was a bmw M4 and it came with Pirelli p zeros. They were great in warm dry conditions but not great in the rain. They are summer tires so no grip at all under 40 degrees. They only lasted 12000 miles before they were under 4/32.

I used to work for Benz as a tech. Nothing but problems with Pirelli. They has become a shell of what they used to be. Total garbage but still a high price tag. I’m a Michelin fan if you can stomach the cost. Continental or Bridgestone as alternatives.

I have a 2024 Hyundai sante fe. (SUV)

With Pirelli tires scorpion MS 245/45 R21.

Not even 6k on the car and the sidewall bubbled.
