Tires Vredestein or Sailun
I drive winters in Alberta Canada, on the mountain side, mostly. I have a 23 full size and have never had better performance in winter conditions. Same with mud - we like bus camping. Mine is on Sailun A/T tires, bought it that way. I’ll definitely be seeking these tires out when it’s time to replace.
I went with vredestein. Vredestein feels better to me, I do wish I had done for blizzaks because they're just so damn good, but my generations survived being put on the wrong damn direction for an entire season and there is no universe where I have problems in the snow. They were a great budget buy while still maintaining sport sidewalls and handling. 9/10 for me could be better dry grip but hey that's winter tires
The only two tires I’ve found that fulfill my requirements are the Vredestein Pinza AT.
Wow, nobody is rocking the Vredstein Wintrac Pro. Considered a performance winter tire. I like them. Tire is quiet compared to the Blizzak’s. Winter performance is good. Haven’t gotten stuck. Love ripping it up in the snow.
We installed the Vredesteins on my son's Fusion, and they're awesome. He drove through near blizzard conditions in the UP without any problems last winter.
Check out Vredestein. I am currently running the Hypertrac all season and they are very good.
A very solid tire for the money. Just behind Michelin, Conti, Pirelli.
They are good just make sure you use them up in a few years since they start to show aging quite early compared to many other brands
The R01 is super slippery, though it can work to your advantage for whipping the car around cones. It can work well as a daily tire that you can use for autocross.
They're crap. Had them new in '21 and was ready to ditch them first winter. We run Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ all seasons and they are phenomenal.
