Tires BRIDGESTONE or GT Radial
I've been running 225/45-17 Blizzak WS90 since 2020. I'll be putting that same set on again this winter. They have been amazing and I'll probably buy another set when these age out. Edit: this period included a 2300 mile roadtrip across the northern US in early 2021 when we were having a crazy blizzard across the northern plains.
I switched from the OEM Michelin to Bridgestone Quiettrack on my '18 Accord Hybrid and they are much quieter and it handles very well. I'm very happy with them, even if I have always been a Michelin man. I don't think you can go wrong with either.
Have been running 215/45r20 Potenza S001's on my i3s for a year or so and no wobble at all. If anything, feels more planted, and power transfer feels more immediate, though that may be my imagination.
Get Bridgestone Blizzak WS-90 for cars, DM-V2 for SUVs. Don't buy "performance" snow tires, they aren't real snow tires.
7k is nothing? My bridgestone A41 last 30k miles (front) or 15k miles (rear) when commuting.
I have a 2015 GSX-S750 that I've run Bridgestone T30/31 for many years. Solid dry performance, decent wet grip and long life.
Blizzaks.
Just got a whole set of these myself. Holy flexy sidewalls Batman! Comfy ride? Yes. Curb or rock protection? 1/10 ???? Quietness? 10/10! Cornering? 5/10.
I wasn’t a fan of the original Bridgestones. They died an early death with just freeway driving due to a track focused wheel alignment.
The problem with LRR tires is they suck at doing the things you need a tire to do, like braking and cornering. I once put a set of Bridgestone Ecopias on a Mazda5... A FWD minivan with 153 Horsepower should not be able to spin the tires all the way through 1st and 2nd gears taking off from a stop sign.
