Bridgestone blizzak ws80 or Michelin X-ice3.
A very competent "All Weather" tire would be Nokian WR G3. It probably won't have the traction as a dedicated winter tire, but will be better than an all-season tire. as it still has the Mountain-Snowflake logo indicated severe service.
I second the praise for Nokkian. Best winter tires I ever had. I hope they'll perform well on the GSW...but in no rush to find out :laugh:
Coming from Blizzaks, the R2s are a night/day difference, it almost feels like you have all-wheel drive. I never had an issue with Chicagoland winter driving over the past few years.
I have used Nokian "Hakkapelitta R" and then "Hakkapelitta 8 Studded" on my Jetta MK6. Really happy with either
Our Kia did not come with a spare but with the fix-a-flat can and air compressor. This is the main reason I went with Bridgestone DriveGuards on the new wheels.
I have purchased 2 complete sets of bridgestone RE-11's from Costco and 3 complete sets of Michelin Pilot Super Sports. If they are using inferior tires I have no idea how orgasmtastic real Super Sports would be because they are hands down the best street tires I've ever had.
I fitted Nokian Hakkapeliitta on it last winter and was very pleased with them.
TSW Bathurst Just picked these up yesterday. 18x8.5 with Bridgestone Potenza S-04 tires in 235/40. I am very happy with them.
I went wit Nitto 555s on the GLIwhich has a much bigger tracttion problem than the R's....huge ride, trn-in and traction improvement. OEM there was the rimprotectors known as Bridgestone RE050As in 225/40/18....horrible crap.
