Tires BRIDGESTONE or Nokia
I have a Finnish tire called Nokian outpost at/s and they work pretty damn well, have size 32s on a stock 3rd gen 4Runner and I went up to wheel in about 2 feet of snow last year about 5 or 6 times and only got stuck once in a deep snow drift on a hill. I’ve had no issues with them especially since they were 550 installed so not bad if you can get them and are on a budget, I think there are better options but for the price these have been almost flawless other than they are wearing a little faster then a expensive tire would, but that’s par for the course.
I recently bought four Nokian Ones for my 2019 Honda Civic EX after reading some really good things about them. I’m now approaching my first year of use and all I can say is that they’re great performing tires. Very little wear showing thus far. Fine traction throughout the year.
I have the Bridgestone Weather Peaks and I love them. I drive mainly in Oklahoma and Texas and see a large variety of weather and terrain and have never had an issue at all. They are rock solid in the wet and do very well off-road as well. I didn't take a mileage hit like you see with the Falkens either. I average about 2,800 miles a month in my 21 premium and these have performed way beyond my expectations.
Had a set on my car that I just sold. In 40000 miles of having them, they were still at 80%. Noise wasn’t bad, and grip was pretty good for what they are (I’m a bit aggressive on highway on/off ramps).
I trusted my Blizzack tires in Alaska way more then I trusted studded tires. Very often studs are thrown into tires that are sub standard tires on snow and ice.
Looks like Nokia Hakkapeliitta, really good winter tires If DOT etc are allright then those would be good choice.
245 35 20, Bridgestone Potenza RE003. Not the best wet tyre, but great for street driving and will last..220 Treadwear you should get around 30-40,000km our of a set.
My 2016 came with OEM Bridgestone Ecopia EP 422 tires, and when I replaced them I went with the "Bridgestone Ecopia EP 422 PLUS" versions (only difference is that they are supposed to have slightly longer tread wear longevity.....) and I've been happy enough with them. No statistical efficiency tests, but they appear to be working about the same as the OEM non-plus models.
I was upset I couldn't buy a new set of Nokians for the Grand Marquis. Been using them for the last 12 years. I had to settle for some BFGoodrich instead. Sucks.
My current Bridgestone Potenzas have plenty of tread left, but developed sidewall cracks and need to be replaced.
