Falken Ziex 960s are what I ran in big bear for years. Rain snow shine. If I needed cables I should've driven a different car. It was a hoon in the snow lol.
Pros: good in rain, snow

I put some all weather Nokians on a car last weekend, and was surprised that they didn't produce any winter tire drone.
Pros: no winter tire drone
We have Vitour Galaxy white stripe tires on our car in 185/80-14 size. They are affordable and works very good.
Pros: affordable, works very good
From a drive to work yesterday at about 24 deg F on Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 winter tires = 2.9 mi/kwh. The Blizzaks are very grippy. Next time I need new tires, im going to try the Nokian hakkapeliitta r5. I think I read somewhere they have a better efficiency.
Pros: very grippy
Cons: lower efficiency
Vehicle:
BMW
Change the tires, you probably have turanzas, which are terribly stiff and hard.
I managed to put up with them for 10,000 km.
I switched to Kleber all-season tires and it’s more comfortable, and interestingly - much quieter.
Pros: more comfortable, much quieter
Cons: terribly stiff, hard
Mileage: 10000 km
I've ran the Conti Extreme Contact Sport, very good summer tires. Compared to the Pilots they wear a bit longer but a bit less grip and slightly softer sidewalls.
Pros: very good summer tires
Cons: less grip, softer sidewalls
I put Toyo AT3’s on last winter after a near miss wreck on the highway and while they are better than stock performance wise i feel I would get better performance out of a dedicated snow tire and summer tire. I went with the toyos because they are the lightest on the market and still went from 27mpg average to 23.5mpg average to me that’s not worth what I gained in good looks.
Pros: better than stock performance
Cons: lower mpg
Mine are around 3.5/32 and 4.5/32 with 35k miles. Probably going to change them in a few thousands more.
Pros: good mileage
Cons: low thread depth
Mileage: 35000 km
It's a uniroyal, probably has pinched steel in sidewall, it will blow sooner than later. Junk it.
Cons: pinched steel in sidewall
I had to explain to an Iranian last night what a heat ring is on his Michelin that was on his 6 yr 20k mile RX that he bought last year from...gulp, CARMAX
Cons: heat ring
Mileage: 32186 km
