Tires BRIDGESTONE or DUNLOP
My old ram came with old all terrains. Took it to the shop in 4hi and granny driving. Installed some blizzaks dvm2s and never put it in 4 again for the rest of the winter.
Dunlop SportMaxx RT2
I paid about $65 per tire (225/40/18) + shipping and then had a local tire shop mount them. They have been great in all conditions (N. Carolina) during the 8,000mi they’ve been on.
I also like the bridgestone RE71's. I ran them on my s2000.
On my NA, Bridgestone RE71RS. They were like $805 including 3 year roadhazard full replacement from Discount Tire out the door. Matched costco. 205/50/15
My Blizzaks on my STi today were awesome. I love these driving days to put them to good use!
Tried xice and blizzak ws90 both brand new. I preferred blizzak it made me more confident to drive in snow than xice my car is fwd.
I went through a set of Blizzaks in a year. I drove like 20k miles and didn’t change them in the summer.
The weatherpeak is a good tire but I find it struggles a bit in the dry/wet compared to other tires in the segment as a trade off for being really good in snow as an all season.
I have DM-V2s on an ascent they are not going to last 3 winters.
My 23’ came with some cheap o’ Dunlops, I’m a little over 10k and they are worn severely unevenly. I plan on replacing them with Costco Michelin defender, or what ever their version is called.
