Tires BRIDGESTONE or Laufenn
We had a really bad storm and the Bridgestone did fine on unplowed roads.
We have a '25 Sport and run Blizzaks on it and its been great the last two winters.
I have used the Bridgestone Turanza Allseason 6 on a Mazda CX5 2.5 AWD for 2 years and 20.000 km. They are excellent during summer heat and torrential rain on highways and I have yet to fond any issue with them on ice and snow, although the latter was limited. They are still at 7 mm tread.
I recently put the Bridgestones on my Mazda6 and they feel great in cold and wet weather, quite good in snow for all seasons too, but I haven’t had a chance to try them in proper European summer heat. My previous car had cc2 that were excellent in the snow, average on wet, and quite bad for my liking on summer drives. They just felt soft and flexi above 30c.
I've been running a set of the latter AS in the snow and they've been great for an AS considering the conditions.
Check out Laufenn for tire options. They are Hankook’s economy line, and they are solid tires at an affordable price.
22 own bridgestone and i’m about to replace them at 16k. mostly city driving. i could probably get more life out of them but got a new set on sale and the originals won’t make it to lease return so i went for it. these wouldn’t be my pick for replacement if i were keeping long term.
Pilot sport as4. I’ve run potenzas before and didn’t like how they rode after 10k miles.
Laufenn provides far less grip, especially when wet.
Ecopia 422, OEM on my Nissan = Worst Tire Ever in my 50 years of driving.
