I've had good luck with Michelin tires dating back to the ones on my mom's Golf when I was in high school. They tend to be a little more expensive than other brands but they're a sure thing.
Falken wildpeak a/t trail also have the 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. I bought them halfway through the winter season last year and I was so happy with the difference they made in the snow. I drove in all kinds of gnarly conditions and didn't see my traction light come on at all after I put them on.
Nokian Hakka’s are great, they are pricier than Blizzak.
Just get Blizzaks, by far the best bang for your buck winter tire, they will need to be swapped for your regular tires every year, but they are awesome in anything this state will throw at you. I have used them for years through several iterations on multiple vehicles.
I’ve got the Giti tires that were “developed” with VW and I’ve gotten over 60k with mine. Granted they are about to the wear bars now and need replacing.
Factory tires are extremely mid. If you'll be driving in harsh weather conditions you should plan on upgrading them. I put Michelin CrossClimate 2s on mine and am very happy with them all year round.
I've gone through at least 5 sets of 651's over the past 4-5 years of daily driving and autox (07 scion tC & now a 17 BRZ). as a budget tire, really can't complain for learning without breaking the bank.
Nokian all weather tires are awesome on my 18 Tiguan
I ran Nokian WRG2, 3 and 4 on all my cars here in Canada over the last many years but I was unable to find 255/45 for the MY.
I went with Toyo Celcius P255/45R19 instead, and they are fairly good (except in rain they suck), but slightly worse than the Nokians.
I know someone who had a blow out running his RE-71R's in the winter, apparently
