Tires Toyo or BRIDGESTONE

At the end (last quarter of life) you can feel the grip slowly decreasing (mostly with the rear tire), but they're not becoming vicious at any moment.

I changed them at this moment because I was moving to the advanced group, but they're awesome tires : great mileage, great performance on the road (if you need more on the streets you're a criminal ????) and still good when it's cold or raining (not as good as the T32, but still very acceptable).

I have Bridgestone Potenza RE 71R tires and love them. Around town they are a bit stiff over bumps but around corners and higher speeds they are unreal traction and ride quality, Love them. I’ve never had them slide out on me and they are very sticky

I just put four new Bridgestone Ecopia’s on my 2016 LX and I’m noticing a smoother, softer ride. Not much quieter, as I detected a bit more road noise than my last set, but I think that’s because my old tires were so worn down.

I recommend Toyo tires, Bridgestone and Michelin. We usually go with toyo but all of the 3 have served us well

I ended up getting the Toyo Open Country ATIII tires as recommended by some of the posters below, and my tire shop! These seem to last longer than some of other options I was looking at, and don't need rotation as frequently. They're also rated as all-season tires, which is a nice plus for New England.

So far I've driven them offroad quite a bit in VT on the NE BDR, some trails in NH, and out on the beach at the Cape Cod National seashore. They've handled it all very well.

As far as road manners go, they are nice and quiet, but of course they are a slightly louder than highway tires. nothing obnoxious. They've also done just fine with grip on wet asphalt, and are fine on dry asphalt as well. I don't think they are as responsive as the HT tires were for steering on the road, but they track nice and straight.

Blizzaks is what I have on. They are amazing

+1 for Blizzaks. I feel like I can go anywhere

In Wisconsin on my 2019 Atlas sel premium v6 I use Winter Tires Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 245/60R18 on Atlas OEM rims.

My OEM ecopias made it to 46k Not any abnormal noise, wear, etc. Not great tires, except for mpg. Would never buy them myself. Horrible in any type of snow

Just chiming in here from Wisconsin also with a PP GTI. I also have the ****ty stock Bridgestone AS and they are completely useless in the snow. I don't blame the diff at all as it can't make a ****ty tire magically increase its friction coefficient or change its design pattern.
