I’ve found general altimax arctics to be a good solution when blizzaks are too much money. Plus these are studdable , if you live in a place where that is allowed. I’ve been running them on my cars for the last 20 years with no issues.
Wife and I have a set of Good Year Assurance all weathers on our Jeep Compass, wife's daily driver. Best tires I/we have ever had on a vehicle, the traction is crazy good on snow and ice in Calgary, no issues what so ever heading out west of the city.
On my old Pontiac Grand Am I ran Kumho All weathers and if their speed rating worked on my new 300 I'd run them on it too. Great tires with great grip unless you hit a wet iced spot but nearly all tires fail on that.
I have Firestone Weathergrip all-weather tires in my escape and they have been just fine driving the past 3 winters in Calgary, with the odd trip out to Banff. I would say they are only questionable once the weather hits -30’s. Other than that they have been comparable to my blizzaks.
I had 2 of the exact same vehicle (Subaru Outback). One had Michelin X-Ice dedicated winter tires and the other had Michelin Cross Climate All Weather tires. Last year, after a fresh snowfall, I took both cars out, drove down the street and took quick turns, braking, starts from stop etc. I then went to an open parking lot and did the same. I didn't notice much difference at all in those types of conditions.
Proper all weather tires like the Nokian WRG4 are great in winter. I had them on my Lancer and highly recommend them!
I live in Canmore and drive a Subaru forester wilderness with the Yokohama G015 (3Peak) and I have never gotten stuck, slid out of control, or had any concern.
They're Westlake ZuperAce Z-007 tires...This (in summer temperatures right now) subjectively to me grips better, brakes better, handles better but is way noisier and less comfortable (UHP tire and no sound deadening like OE tires).
I too have Assurance tires that lasted about half the amount of miles they are warranted for.
My kia Ev6 tiers lasted only1600 miles, one year only.?
