I have them on my 2016 forester 2.5. I live in the middle of Indiana so for half of the year it rains somewhat regularly. Personally, I think the tire is great. I have made turns too quickly while the roads were wet and didn't slide around at all. Accelerating and braking, i consider the traction to be very good in all conditions.
Best Tires for Subaru Forester
I use Bridgestone Weatherpeaks on my 2018 Forester but I live in the east coast of Canada.
I have them on my Forester XT and they are excellent. Relatively quiet. Extremely grippy. Very confident off road.
Ran the 365AW on my Forester & found it to be a competent tire for the freak weather events that happened before/after the winters being on.
I chose the Bridgestone weatherpeaks for my 21 forester. They were great in the rain on the highway and on dry gravel/dirt roads.
On Tuesday, I had new tires put on the car. Nothing special, some goodyear assurance all seasons. The new tires made a big difference in ride quality and handling.
I'm on my third set of Pirelli Scorpion AT plus tires. IMO it's a wildly underrated tire. I put a lot of highway miles on my Forester, and while I haven't done any wild 4x4 stuff, they've never left me stranded.
Wild peaks are the shiz! No vibrations beasts on snow, ice, and rain. And drive smooth in the summer months. Overall these have been the best tire for the money.
I’m in the hilly part of southwest Wisconsin and have a 2015 Subaru Forester 2.5i Touring with Nokian WRG4 SUV tires.
We had heavy snow and ice this week where I live, and I am thoroughly unimpressed with the stock Falken Ziex tires on our 2024 Forester. Terrible traction in the snow. They are also wearing way faster than any other tires I've owned.
