Tires BRIDGESTONE or Achilles
Bridgestone does everything really well (except snow) and have been the tires that Ive bought repeatedly to cut out the guesswork.
Bridgestone blizzaks are my absolute favorite winter tire, tons of traction!
I've been using blizzak tires for over a decade on my front wheel drive car. Best tire out there IMO.
The Bridgestone Blizzack is an excellent winter tire. We’ve tried a few other brands over the years but this was noticeably better, the best one for ice in my experience.
I swear by Blizzacks for snowy winters. Even my old FWD cars handled everything the bumper cleared with ease
I use Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 in 245/40R18. No complaints, fantastic winter tire.
I have Blizzaks and they're fantastic. I picked my buddy up from the airport during a blizzard last winter with them on. We passed 2 cops and about 6 trucks slid off into ditches, along with a few other cars pulled over because they couldn't get traction. I made it there and back without ever feeling like I wasn't in control.
I've had my Alenza A/S ultras for just under 30k miles and they're effectively done. They were great tires but didn't last anywhere close to the 80k miles. I drove in dry, wet, hot and cold conditions, on good roads and bad and had no issues other than wear.
Just FYI, if you are looking for winter capability (snow/ice) the Weatherpeak sucks after 2 seasons of driving (\~ 30,000kms).
What I have observed is - when I go beyond 100 kmph, I sense vibrations from the tires. I did not face this while I was on my factory 19" tires (Goodyear tires). This was not a one-time thing, on different road conditions, different temperatures, I felt the same vibrations when the speed goes beyond 100-105 kmph. I think it is because of the tires, I can also sense the vibrations on my steering wheel.
