Tires BRIDGESTONE or FEDERAL
I roll a set of Bridgestone Blizzak WS90’s on my Chevy Bolt. Very happy with the performance on snow and especially stability on icy roads. As always drive cautiously but the driving feel and confidence is night and day compared to “3 season” tires.
Get blizzak's. You wont regret it. Front of my Beemer acts like a snow plough everywhere I go. Rwd only, no added weight, absolutely unstoppable... (pretty far north myself)
Bridgestone Turanza EV tires. No foam and quieter than the OE on the car. Rides better too :)
Running the new Blizzaks. They’ve worked great!
2016 EX-L V-6 MT coupe. I seem to swap later every year. Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 dropping width to 225.
With the amount of snow decreasing these tires will wear faster on dry pavement. But they are good in snow and 40° and below weather.
Went to 17s and put on Bridgestone Blizzaks. Amazing the difference snow tires will make.
I have a Superduty Tremor with Duratrac Wranglers and a Focus ST that I have a second set of wheels and Blizzaks on it. As long as the snow isn’t too deep that it packs my bumper full I prefer to drive the ST with snow tires on it in winter weather because dedicated snow tires are almost always better in colder climates period.
Federal 595RS-PRO 275 width - Lower grip levels than RE71 or similar, but they wear like rocks. I am on heat cycle 15 and they have no significant wear. Time deltas for me on a short, technical track are ~1.5-2 secs slower than my other tires, however.
I have a set of Federal RSRR. They only have about 3,000 miles on them. I took them to a track day and there was no feedback on when the tire would lose traction, the car would go from full grip to zero in a snap.
Had horrible experiences with these tires on my Focus ST, chunked really quickly and weren't as fast as the RS-RR's
