Bought Weatherpeaks instead of CC2 for our Crosstrek, no difference in MPG. They're quieter than the stock Falkens.
Snow traction isn't as good as dedicated winter tires but it's good enough for the winters around here.
If you need dedicated winter tires, best option is to buy a second set of rims and winter specific tires, Blizzaks are a personal fav of mine.
Great track tire. I have about 6 hours of track time on mine and have maybe one event left in them.
I have 4 track days on my RE71RS on my NB miata and still have a day or two of life left. Roughly ~10 hours
of driving the piss out of those tires.
Bridgestone blizzat tires are amazing I live in Southern Michigan not that much snow but it gets icy they are great
I run Blizzaks on the factory wheels and summer tires on my Turbomacs. I've run just about every brand of snow tire you can imagine and I find the value to be where Blizzaks live. The roads are trash here in upstate NY for 8 months out of the year and I drive a LOT.
Whatever you decide on for rims, (I definitely recommend getting a winter set,) you should absolutely get the Blizzaks! They perform better than studded snow tires on snow and ice.
I bought a set of the new Bridgestone Potenza Sport AS and going to be installing them shortly. I’ll update here over the next several months through winter and back into summer on how they do.
Ran the blizzaks through 4-6 inches of snow and was barely making it through that. I never had less confidence in the snow than on those WS80 blizzaks. They were almost worse than the Sotozorro 3’s I had on my R two winters ago. Those I’ll excuse those because they were at least OK in the dry, otherwise they were pretty terrible in anything but light snow.
I had blizzaks for a few seasons after a set of very good dunlops. I was severely dissatisfied in the e blizzak performance. Not only did they wear quickly but they were awful in the snow and dry. We have X-ices on the Tiguan and they are far superior to the blizzaks.
