I've only used the original winguard sports. Can't complain for the price and it's purpose. They never let me down in a blizzard...
I’ve been running a set of Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 in factory dimensions year round on my 3.6. They perform pretty damn well in the snow, great in the rain, awesome off road, and they’re quiet.
I considered reskinning the stock 19" Pretorias with winter rubber, but instead will go with a set of factory 18" Pretorias shod in Nokian WR-G4. My motivation was to have zero fitment concerns, slight upgrade in tire protection, keep the current rolling-stock look which I love, try a tread type that is slightly less winter-storm-focused and instead mixed-winter-climate-focused.
I use gislaved winter tires on my A4 and they have worked well for high speed highway driving and also wet winter roads. Full confidence in snowy conditions. I am going with the same on the OB.
Installed my BEC Golf R headlights with the Morimoto HID kit...Also sourced some OEM Alltrack Canyons, and installed them with new Michelin Pilot Sport AS3s in OEM sizes. The difference in ride quality is stark, with the Michelins soaking up road imperfections much better than the OEM Falkens.
Federal FZ-201 M tires. They were as fast as my used Hoosier R7s on the same course. Ended up about 1 second faster on a 1:15 lap vs the R7s. Fairly communicative towards the limits. On Auto Cross they were very sticky.
I have these in 225-55-17, great 3 season 80K mile tire for us, very quiet and minimal MPG hit even going with the taller sidewall, double bonus, they are made in russia just like our Haka 8s.
My 2009 CR-V that my daughter drives as a hand-me-down needed new tires. I saw a few recommendations for the Michelin Defender as a good, quiet CR-V tire. I had them installed and *wow* - so much quieter than the stock continentals that were on it. Huge difference in the amount of cabin noise coming up from the road.
I had Ecopias (EDIT: EL-400s) on my Mazda3. They would not die. At like 90k miles I replaced them because they had gotten hard and the snow traction declined... they still had a decent amount of tread left.
Well, the A/S-3 blows in the snow so definitely dont get that as your all season.
