Tires BRIDGESTONE or FEDERAL
so far they’re quiet, grippy under wet conditions & slightly better in handling & ride than the Dunlop Grandtrek that came with them. Haven’t driven them in snow yet…
Honestly, for that run rate, any good tire brand works. Bridgestone, MRF, Ceat.
Blizzaks are the best for snow, x-ice are the best for ice. Depends on how you drive. If you’re late breaking all the time then you want x-ice for better braking grip, if you drive slow in the winter and plan your stops then blizzaks will have better acceleration traction.
I’ve been driving a Honda CRV with Bridgestone Blizzaks and haven’t had any issues.
I vote for ws-90, those tires are unstoppable in our Ontario winters. Had them on my old mk4, my e60 550i bmw, and will be getting some now for my 7.5 GTI
I got Bridgestone blizzaks there for my truck after tax it was $ 1,100 for 4 tires in 2024.
We swapped in snow tires (blizzaks) and took a 20% efficiency hit, so your reported 33% is definitely worse but still in the same ballpark.
I recently replaced my worn out stock tires (the OEM low rolling resistant EV friendly ones) on my ‘22 Bolt EV 2LT with Bridgestone Weatherpeak 215/50R17’s mainly due to a sale at Costco Tires. I wanted the snowpeak rating as winter is upon us. However, my efficiency dropped dramatically since, going from an average of 4.5 miles per KWh (even in the dead of winter averaging 30 degrees F) to around 3.1 miles
Mine only lasted 30 thousand miles and developed uneven where even after always rotated and balancing them. They are loud and they always feel unbalanced because they shake like crazy when cold.
I've hat them on for 30 thousand miles and they are crap they started rotten and extreme uneven wear.
