Tires BRIDGESTONE or BFGoodrich
I’ve been very impressed with my BFG Trail Terrain /TAs. Light off-road use, real good in snow, confident in lots of rain, good on the road, and look great.
Got a chance to ride the t33, it handles really well. It compares well to the road 6. I like the t33 on canyon roads a bit better going edge to edge.
The 71R is absolutely amazing tire! Worth every penny.
When I picked up a new vehicle, they sold me Bridgestone Blizzak tires and they were awesome. They're a studless winter tire and they are really good in snow and on ice.
Replaced a broken rear hatch strut and rear shocks replaced under warranty (common issues). New Michelin Cross-Climates at 45k replacing the OEM Bridgestones.
I have a winter wheel set with blizzaks on it. Everyone drives slow as fuck and then there's me mobbing in a snow storm like the roads are clear. Make a hell of a difference.
My Blizzaks have more tread and I've used them for four seasons now and I noticed last winter that they are absolutely not what they were when I bought them.
I was considering the blizzak6 which are available in my size for both front and rear but might be overkill for most of the rest of the winter and likely counterproductive, so figured all seasons might be for the best. Choice of all season tyres is very limited, especially for the rear size, pretty much down to All season contact 2s but there’s a lot of feedback online about how they don’t feel particularly responsive on the front when steering which has me a bit concerned, so was thinking maybe of going cross climate 3 sports on the front and all season contact 2 at the back.
I had the Bridgestones on my Mk7.5 GTI and was very unhappy with them. When it was time to change tires (after only 12,000 miles) I went with the Michelin PSAS4 I was blown away by how much better they were.
I have DM-V2s on an ascent they are not going to last 3 winters.
