We run Bridgestone Blizzak and they are amazing, the car is a beast in the snow with them on.
Blizzak is the king for studless snow traction, I think Michelin X-Ice is a little better on ice, Continental VikingContact is another great option for a little less $$$. I'm currently on Vredestein Wintrac+ (something like that) and they're fine.
Swapped the 21’s and summer tires off my summit reserve for 18” XDs and Kumho Venture with a 3 peak mountain snowflake rating. Had 10” of snow and didn’t bat an eye in snow mode.
I\u2019ve had the Bridgestone S23 and they lastet 3k miles. Best 3k miles I\u2019ve ridden but def not the best mileage.
Kumho - superior value and great handling.
After switching to Bridgestone Weatherpeak All-Weather tires i get 8.1 as the lowest. 29-30MPG.
On my last car Michelin Pilot Sport 4S lasted ~20k but that's kind of expected due to how soft they are. On my current I have Kumho Ecsta Sport and they have lasted about the same but instead of wear being the issue they're cracking/tearing.
Your best mileage will come from a low rolling resistance tire. I use Ecopias by Bridgestone. I had Weatherpeaks on before that and had noticeably worse fuel efficiency (8-10 mpg difference.)
Tires are the most important thing. The Bridgestone Ecopias that came on my Overland were useless in snow. I was slipping and sliding in 2”.
My 22 came with Bridgestone ecopias. Worst snow performance ever.
