I'd go with the Nokian WR G4, which is an American all-weather version of Nokian's European performance winter tire, the WR A4. So it's basically a mild winter tire that can be used year-round.
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.
Coincidentally, my Nokian Rotiiva tires were awesome, it ended up cracking and dry rotting out as well. 6 years and 45,000 miles, and they still had about 50% tread lift left
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.
My friend tried the HyperTrac and said they are better than the Nokian Z/line and Michelin AS4s.
Hakkapeliittas FTW, have the 9s on my STI and my dad has the 10s on his 440i, unbelievable amount of grip especially with awd and LSDs
These are Hakkapeliitta 9 studded that I got for a deal because the 10s are out already. Jokes aside I’ve never driven on a tire that gave me this much confidence in snow/ice.
I've been running a set of Weatherpeaks on my Kia Seltos since spring.
They are quiet, didn't impact fuel mileage at all from the OEM all seasons, handle great in dry and wet, and the snow traction has been exemplary. Glare ice is not perfect, but really only a good studded winter stands a chance with that. Mixture of snow/ice is handled with no problem...When they do break traction, they have been very predictable and easy to recover.
I got some cheap $100 tires and even those are better than the stock Bridgestones
The factory Bridgestone Ecopia tires were trash. They were useless in any wet conditions at 30k miles. It’s rocking some Generals now.
