RE71R’s or full Hoosier slicky boys if I’m feeling spicy and really wanna set a PB.
Canadian here, winter tires are good enough for most driving on ice and snow. I've got a set of Bridgestone Blizzak winter tires on my Ford Edge FWD and it goes through all conditions just fine.
+1 for the Bridgestone Weatherpeaks. They are also symmetrical / non - directional so you can have a full size spare and do 5 tire rotation. I run them on my 09 STI in the northeast.
I use Bridgestone RE71Rs for both track/street and they are great!
you can look into Bridgestone RE-71R(S) for good grip with better longevity than a052
If you are getting a decent set, like say Bridgestone Blizzak WS90, you will be in the \~$125-180/tire range depending on size, plus mount and balance.
Absolutely. I live in northeast Ohio which has lake effect snow and I’ve used a second set of wheels with Blizzaks for years. They are almost as good as having 4WD. You won’t fishtail around corners and braking is good.
I drive spiritedly and the performance of the WP has not been disappointing although they are definitely not summer tires I also do not lose traction as easily in water or cold (New England).
Are Bridgestone - POTENZA RE980AS+ any good?
I have a 2016 Golf S AT, and love it, except for the 15" Bridgestone Ecopias which are terrible tires.
