I put TOYO Observe G3-Ice on my Tacoma last winter. I live in the middle of nowhere on the other side of the country and they were great.
Owner reviews for tires
We have Michelin X ice, love them.
Seem to have good tread wear and performance
Toyo Observes have the best traction on snow and ice of any non-studded tire. They're impregnated with crushed walnut shells, which act as mini studs. As a result they're noisy on dry pavement. But if traction is your top priority they can't be beat.
Just did an 8k mile road trip on new Wildpeak AT4Ws and they were excellent for everything from freeway to up the side of a mountain. Nice and quiet, drives easy, and three peak mountain snowflake rated.
On our cars we have had the Blizzak WS60/70/80 and Blizzak DM-V2 for 20 years. The Blizzaks have been awesome but want to test the Hakkas to see if they are better than the Blizzaks.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta is your best answer. These tires run toe to toe with everything else available on snow and ice acceleration and handling and beat everything else on stopping ability on snow and ice.
I put a set of Michelin WeatherGuards on our Smart AWD SUV before last winter. The car drove great down steep icy hills when the roads were closed down.
My Kumho Crugen tires lasted 32k miles.
Honestly as a parts guy that deals with tires ever day the worst part about that is the fact its a Bridgestone Alenza lol
I replaced mine on a 2017 Ram 1500 4x4 Laramie at 34,000 miles and they were basically bald..I kept up with rotating..I replaced with the exact same tires due to a buy 3 get the 4th for 1 dollar and the second set at 10,000 miles still look new as far as tread depth..
