vs
Tires ADVAN or OEM Subaru
Reviews
Over the last 2200 miles (3540km) since I put my snows on, I've averaged 26.4mpg, or 8.9l/100km. At least half of those miles are in decent storms. I don't know how people get such horrible mileage in these cars- mine gets better than any previous Subaru I've owned, while going a hell of a lot faster.
Pros: better than previous Subaru
Cons: horrible mileage for others
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 3540 km
I have a Subaru with new snow-rated tires. That doesn't mean it's true for every other driver on the road.
Pros: new snow-rated tires
Vehicle:
Subaru
Well I have a 24 Limited with the 20s and live 2 miles up a dirt road. The tires are fine to me. I have an outback and tundra with 18s and don't notice much difference.
Pros: tires are fine
Cons: dust pools in door wells
Vehicle:
Subaru
My Chrysler 300S 5.7 does shockingly well in medium snow. Blizzard conditions are not acceptable for that car, so give me a Subaru Legacy GT Limited Spec B with Blizzaks
Pros: shockingly well in snow
Cons: not for blizzard
Vehicle:
Subaru Legacy
I have a 25 yo Subaru Impreza RS that is completely unaffected by snow. That is as long as I put proper snow tires on in the winter, I forgot to switch one winter before a storm and my summer tires were pointless to say the least.
Pros: unaffected by snow
Cons: summer tires pointless
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza
Its the tires folks, not the car. Anyone can do that, if you have reliable tires.
Pros: reliable tires
Vehicle:
Subaru
Winter tires are significantly superior to AWD. Should you question that.
Pros: superior to AWD
My 22 WRX was also good in the snow, there was times where people were getting stuck especially on hills and I would just cruise by with no issues. I had pilot sport all season 4 tires which are only meant for light snow and I had no issues.
Pros: good in the snow
Vehicle:
Subaru
I have Advan V701s on my mr2 and for a 300 treadware they've got a ton of dry grip but they definitely struggle in the wet
Pros: ton of dry grip
Cons: struggle in the wet
Vehicle:
Toyota MR2
The fucking console rattles like a mother fucker. The stock tires are pieces of shit. The clutch pedal will make noise when it is cold because they used shitty spot welds on the pedal assembly. The ac compressor will probably fail within 50k miles.
Cons: console rattles, stock tires shit
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 80467 km
