I'm now on my 3rd winter on Blizzaks because Costco had a deal on them at the time and I thought I'd give them a try. I find them similar, but probably better from the standpoint that I used to be able to spin the X-Ices too easily taking off from a light in slippery conditions, and I can't say that I've noticed that issue as much with the Blizzaks.
For price and performance bridgestone blizzak dmv2. Hands down. You will have a different kind of confidence driving in that crap. Its night and day
For an SUV/CUV I generally recommend Cooper Discoverer Enduramax which maybe a good choice here as it has an extra belt layer and is a bit tougher than many regular all-weather tires
I got Coopers on both our pickup and VW Jetta in the past year. They were on sale. Seem good...
I’ve been pleased with Cooper tires over the years. Both vehicles I have right now have Coopers on them.
OEM Bridgestone Alenza tires are known to be trash and the rears were completely done by ~17k miles. I have ~37k miles on the Michelin CrossClimates and the rears probably have another 20k left in them, fronts have another 30-40k left in them.
I drove from Halifax to vancouver island BC during the first week of Jan 2025, and it wasnt too bad. I have a 2018 ford f250 with 4x4 and bridgestone blizzak snow tires, and it was fine.
My buddy got 28k on these same coops I regularly get 55k on falkens.. before that I had the Ko1s I guess you could call the from BFG
I have had COUNTLESS Bridgestone OE tires come from many brands worn out in 20k or usually less. The aftermarket replacements are also junk from Badstone
the stock Turanzas (summer) are so crappy that the soft winter tires feel a lot more controlled and don’t steer by themselves like the Turanzas do.
