I doubt anyone will thumbs up this since they’re cheap tires, but the Kenda Kwik Tendrils I have (26x1.75) I really like for city riding. Folding bead, fairly supple, never had a flat in over 100 city commute miles.
There's also the Bridgestone WeatherPeak, which is priced like the Michelin CrossClimate, but it seems like it has better snow and ice traction.
I like Bridgestone Potenza RE003. Great dry grip and excellent wet grip.
RE71r - on all four corners of my S6. Really sticky and ride well.
After a massive blowout on 422 here in PA a few months back, and having HUGE bubbles in the sidewalls of two other tires and a large gash (no idea where this came from) of the spare that went on, I replaced all four with a set of Bridgestone RE980 AS+'s. What a difference in the way the car rides and grips. You can feel the Bridgestone's handle the bumps SO much better than the stock Conti's and there's much more grip.
I lived in Boston for a while and i used blizzak tires. They worked well.
You should expect a slightly worse gas mileage, but not by much. In exchange you're getting excellent traction in the snow and rain though, so definitely a good choice for a tire.
I haven’t gotten my MYLR yet, but on my CX-5 I did a ton of research and the Bridgestone Weatherpeak edged out CC2 on many fronts.
I drove through some bad winter storms on them and they’re a beast. My MPG was also not affected, or were barely affected (like 0.2-0.4mpg less), compared to the Toyo stock tires.
I've had same experience with their blizzacks. Great traction, horrible road noise.
My Scout came from the factory Kenda tires. I am wholly not impressed with them, after 9,000 km they are just starting to scrub in for turning grip. I am also under the understanding that these factory tires are only good for 10,000km, so I will be changing none the less.
The addition of any moisture to the rear wheel, including from dew or fog reduces grip friction into the realm of nonexistence making for a disconcerting riding experience.
