I've enjoyed them on my RS3 last winter. Much better than ice & snow Blizzaks, but this is my first experience with a performance winter tire.
I bought a set of these for the wifes EOS maybe 2 years ago from tirerack and they made a huge improvement compared to what she had, i think kumho's. Less road noise, more grip all around.
BFGOODRICH G-FORCE SPORT COMP-2 XL on a 2005 Cooper S. They’ve been on for 3 years and ~21k miles. Great tire, good wear pattern and I’ve rotated them 2x.
I put a set of Vredestein Quatracs on my wife's MB E350 4matic. They absolutely transformed the car for the better. I'd like to find some for my GTI. I highly recommend them.
I bought these tires based on Tire Rack's review and it is spot on. The one word in the review that stuck with me and I'd have to agree with is luxurious. They feel that way. They are clear to me the best tires I've ever owned. And, I have been driving for more than 45 years. They are quiet, handle really well in both dry and wet.
I'd be inclined to go with something like this : BFGoodrich Advantage T/A Sport LT - Size: 235/70R16 it is Severe Snow Service Rated and $136.99 @ Tire Rack
I also live in the Twin Cities and switched from the stock hankooks to BFG KO2s. Huge difference in the snow. I almost never had to switch into 4wd. Definitely would recommend them for around here.
In winter weather (New England) I’ve had good luck with BFG KO2
I have the KO’s. They don’t balance for shit and are very soft. They have decent grip, and aren’t terribly loud. This is my third set.
BFGs tend to weathercheck, crack, and cup before at about 70% of wear.
