My mini cooper (FWD like your Prius) is a beast in the snow with winter tires. WINTER tires, not just all seasons.
Owner reviews for tires
My Nexen winter tires are fantastic. Highly recommended
Ours is a tank. Running on Nokian R5s and compared to my old RS5 with winters, it’s as good as the Audi.
Eu tinha esses no meu antigo DS4. Transformou o carro. Assim que precisar trocar os meus vou voltar pro pilot sport.
I have a 2009 Nissan versa (fwd) that I've driven through all kinds of Canadian winter weather. With Michelin winter tires it handles just fine.
My wife's Prius is awesome in the snow. Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 tires. Glad to hear you are going that route, just be aware there are different models of blizzak tires.
I regret getting PS5 on mine. The tires are too good and take away much of Miata’s fun factor.
I got slightly larger tires (I think 235/65/r17 but could be wrong) but they fit and look nice. Falkan wild peaks, they’re 3 ply and slightly heavier so they’re basically a money sink. Worse fuel economy, more road noise, more expensive to purchase. Buuuuut… Look cooler, better off road / snow performance, less likely to pop from impact.
I currently have a set of Falken Rubitreks on my Landcruiser and coming from street tires, are just too rough for me on my commute.
The gti tired are crap
