Tires Toyo or Vredestein
Got some for the SQ5. Great performance in the snow, while still pretty good on dry pavement. A bit prone to aqua planning on heavy rain days. I do find them a bit noisy on dry pavement after a couple seasons though, but that could be a snow tire thing.
Look at the Toyo AT 3 EV’s, they are super light for an AT tire. They rode great, zero noise.
I have them on my SQ5. Agree with all the other comments, they’re excellent winter tires.
I’ve got those on my Miata. They’re insanely good, feels great on dry pavement unlike a lot of snow tires, and still performs well in the snow.
Best Winter tire I've had for sure. It's the perfect tire if snow isnt consistant but the cold temps are. Performs wonderfully on pavement while still maintaining excellent snow performance.
I went with a set of 5 Toyo Open Country AT3 in 265/75/16 which have better snow performance were much cheaper at $185/tire.
A set of Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ will run you just $670 on the Rack.
I put Toyo AT3’s on last winter after a near miss wreck on the highway and while they are better than stock performance wise i feel I would get better performance out of a dedicated snow tire and summer tire. I went with the toyos because they are the lightest on the market and still went from 27mpg average to 23.5mpg average to me that’s not worth what I gained in good looks.
Toyos kinda suck, especially after some wear.
With stock Toyo tires = shit.
