So swapped out to an AWD Atlas, added new 17inch wheels with Blizzaks. It's a remarkable set up for winter driving, incredibly confidence inspiring
Pros: confidence inspiring, remarkable setup

I use Mobil ESP VW507.00 5w30, which is on the approved oil list and I buy for $30 when it goes on sale at Canadian Tire.
Pros: approved oil list

I am running the Quatrac Pros on my R (225/45 18), and have been really happy with them. I ended up running them year round. They are a really impressive tire.
Pros: really impressive tire
Cons: sketchy in the rain

I have Vredestein Quatrac 5 (I think that's the model, not sure if it's still a 'current' tire) on my Alltrack, also an '18 SE. I drove them on some hard pack and a little ice last winter and thought they were good.
Pros: good on hard pack, good on ice
Cons: not as good as winter tire

I just replaced my stock tires with Vredestein Quatrac Pro tires (205 55R17 for me). These Dutch made tires seem to be quieter and have a better grip than the Falken OEM.
Pros: quieter, better grip

I switched to Akebono ceramic compound after about six months of trying the Hawk HPS street pads. Performance is on par with OEM but I was looking for something that has less brake dust.
Pros: less brake dust, OEM performance

I use Valeo wipers, i got me a new set yesterday from, FCP Euro. $22 for the set. Seems to work good to me, wipers in general don't work well on my rock pitted windshield, my OEM blades did last me 3years and 85k miles though, rubber was still okay but the streaks were getting bad.
Pros: work good
Cons: streaks were getting bad

The stock Pirelli Cinturato P7s were quite worn at 29K miles...the poorest wearing tire Ive ever experienced in nearly 4 million miles of driving. What I liked about the Pirellis: Very good steering feel Very good dry grip Quite comfortable What I did not like about the Pirellis: Very poor wet grip 29K miles is a bit dismal
Pros: very good steering feel
Cons: very poor wet grip
