Owner reviews for tires
Viking Contact 7s. Affordable and has an extremely high rating, even beating out Blizzaks on many tests. They are from Europe and have just arrived in Canada. Highly, highly recommended.
I ran the Saliun Terramax AT for 2 years, 80k km. Tread still at roughly 60 percent and no flats/cupping, etc.
We have put on several sets of Sailun tires at our shop. So far we haven't had an issue with them. Good tread patterns, they balance well, and the value is great.
You want cheap tires. Go Westlakes. Great budget brand.
I've run a few sets and no complaints.
Continental 195 65 15 on all four corners -- fantastic snow traction in a front drive with traction control. It would beat SUV's with all seasons in a stoplight snow drag race.
I am running the Federal Himalaya Iceo. Ran them last winter and had no issues at all , daily driven and even used for work. Bought them from Town Fair Tire and I would recommend them to others.
I wouldn't settle for anything less than studded Nokians if you can afford it. They'll be hard to get this late in the year, but you likely already know that. I live in western NY though, so YMMV.
I've had cheap Kumho ECSTA AST's. That you get what you paid for, when money is tight. Their ECSTA Platinum LX was a much better tire, and actually didn't have wear issues which the PQ46 chassis is known for (feathering). Decent grip.
Riding on Pirellis Cinturatos P7 now. IMO best tire for the Passat. The hankooks had no grip even in very light snow. Rain driving was scary, loud on highway. I couldn't risk driving my family with them.
