Tires YOKOHAMA or BRIDGESTONE

Stock bridgstones suck in the snow, the best systems can't help wrong tires for the conditions. 18" X-ice3's, have PP and Jb1 power and the traction systems are very impressive in my opinion. The car limits the power aggressively to maintain traction and control even in very slick conditions (good thing).

Just replaced the OEM Yokohama Avid S34D with the Pirelli P7. Already can tell that they are far superior. 7 db quieter than the OEM on same section of road. I got 20k miles out of the Yokohama and the inside shoulder of all 4 were through the first layer of rubber.

I have blizzak WS80 215 55 R16. I love them. Just waiting for some snow here in the Midwest .But they handled very nicely in a downpour earlier this week.

Found a guy on graigslist selling barely used bridgstone blizzaks, I mounted them on my 17" stock wheels. Went through last winter here in the northeast and I def recommend these!

I got a set of Bridgestone Blizzak WS-80 P195/65/r15 tires from costco and I am very happy with them.

See also: reddit.com/r/mazda3 - they seem to recommend the Bridgestone Blizzaks.

Bridgestone blizzak ws80 or Michelin X-ice3.

Put some super grippy Yokohama's on there and problem solved...

I had the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus on my vw cc and very noisy and the car didn't drive straight the tire store replaced the with Bridgestone Potenza RE970 AS Pole Position which are ok.

The factory tires on my 335i are Japanese made Bridgestone RE050 Run-flats. They suck, harsh ride, low tire life, loud, and most of all one small pot-hole and you got an instant sidewall bubble.
