I put Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ on my '25 SS. So far they have proven to be quite planted. I did notice a slight drop in range, but it's worth it for the better confidence on the road.
I’m in CNY. I took delivery of mine earlier this week and brought a new set of Vredestein Wintrac Pros for the dealer to mount before I even left the lot.
Your KO2s/KO3s are excellent tires, you don't need any other tires for a 3 mile drive. They are 3PMS tires and perform well on ice among AT tires.
I went with vredestein. Vredestein feels better to me, I do wish I had done for blizzaks because they're just so damn good, but my generations survived being put on the wrong damn direction for an entire season and there is no universe where I have problems in the snow. They were a great budget buy while still maintaining sport sidewalls and handling. 9/10 for me could be better dry grip but hey that's winter tires
The only two tires I’ve found that fulfill my requirements are the Vredestein Pinza AT.
You can now get the K 03 in the OEM size for the 20” wheel. I have them and love them but it’s a lot of tire if you’re not off roading.
Wow, nobody is rocking the Vredstein Wintrac Pro. Considered a performance winter tire. I like them. Tire is quiet compared to the Blizzak’s. Winter performance is good. Haven’t gotten stuck. Love ripping it up in the snow.
K02s aren't the best on wet/slushy pavement in my opinion. I've had the rear step out on me twice cornering, spin in place at a stop a few times and pretty much guaranteed to get a bit loose on standing water with speed.
They had good reviews so I put them on my old car. First I had a problem with bulking on one of them within a year. After that the rest of them showed a severe dryrot after only 3 years and only like 20k km. I sold the car, but would not expect them to be more than 4 years before dryrotted away. I will never get them again, even though I have fairly good experience from the farming world.
I absolutely hate using the KO2's. They're a long lasting tire with a high load rating, but that's because the rubber compound is hard as steel. They're outright dangerous in wet and icy conditions.
