I tried blizzaks years ago and they were ok. Then I tried Vikingcontact 7's and have stuck with them for multiple vehicles.
Pros: stuck with them
Cons: blizzaks were ok

Based on Tirerack reviews, I'm leaning towards the Continental Vikingcontact7 which I'll use from Thanksgiving until early March. Anyone tried these tires? If so, how would you rate them?
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Vikingcontact7s. Not the absolute best tires out there, but I think the best for the price
Pros: best for the price
Cons: not the absolute best
Vehicle:
Subaru
If you want an all season, you can’t go wrong with Continental, or the Pilot Sport 4s summer tire like most suggest.
Pros: can't go wrong
Vehicle:
Ford Focus
My 2016 came with Dunlops that were garbage, replaced them at 25k with Continental DWS06s and it was like getting a brand new car. Highly recommend.
Pros: like getting a new car
Cons: were garbage
Mileage: 25000 km
I'm running Continental DWSO6+'s and absolutely love them. I'm at stock size and got them for $640. I just drove during winter storm Izzy, and have zero complaints.
Pros: absolutely love them
Cons: none
I'm not happy at all with the OEM Continental ProContact TX . I had a sidewall blowout (photo below) on I-40 in AZ with less than 1500 miles on the car.
Cons: sidewall blowout
Mileage: 1500 km
Personally, I went with the Continentals three weeks ago and love them.
Pros: user loves them
We put the Viking 7’s on my wife’s FWD Tiguan and it’s been crushing these last two Wisconsin winters. Very pleased with them so far.
Pros: crushing winter performance, very pleased
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
We put the Viking Contact 7's on our 2021 Golf. My 2019 Golf R has Nokian Haka R2's. Winter performance for the two tires is basically indistinquishable to me, which is very high praise as the Nokians have long been considered the best winter tire money can buy. The fact that the VC's are so much cheaper means that if I had to buy new winter tires right now for the R I would for sure get the VC's. Can't go wrong with them.
Pros: indistinguishable winter performance, cheaper price
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
