Tires YOKOHAMA or BRIDGESTONE

I’m in a similar climate and tbh the Blizzaks are a night and day difference compared to X-Ice on heavier vans. Way more bite on ice and slushy intersections especially from a stop and the stability is noticeably better when roads are half cleared.

Before i tried several brands. Pero i stuck with bridgestone for my car. Matibay and hindi mabilis mapudpod. Tried and tested kahit initial purchase mahal. Sulit siya

I've got Blizzaks on my 19 here in Southwestern Ontario. They've been great so far! We are getting hammered this winter too!

If you want to increase traction you need to get top tier quality such as blizzak ws90 or michelin ice-x

If you end up choosing real winters then Blizzaks or X-Ice genuinely transform the car as I ran Blizzaks on my old RWD coupe when I lived near Ann Arbor and it went from borderline undriveable to genuinely confident on unplowed roads.

Bridgestone ecopia 300 is really quiet compared to my stock maxiss tires

I strongly recommend proper winter tires. At a minimum, at least get winter rated all weather tires. We had a lot of slushy bullshit build up today. The only reason I was able to get out of my neighborhood & make it to a Dr's appointment was because I run Blizzaks on my ND1.

22 own bridgestone and i’m about to replace them at 16k. mostly city driving. i could probably get more life out of them but got a new set on sale and the originals won’t make it to lease return so i went for it. these wouldn’t be my pick for replacement if i were keeping long term.

Never had a Yokohama tire last more than 30k miles on three different vehicles, so I won’t be buying them again.

We had blizzaks on wife’s jeep. Did not like them.
