Bridgestone Blizzaks. Those tires on this platform have never given me more confidence in winter conditions in the Rockies.
Get a second set of wheels with some Bridgestone Blizzaks and you'll be fine in pretty much everything other than real deep snow; then the bumper becomes a plow.
I dailyed my E36 BMW with just a pair of Blizzaks on the rear, got me through Wisconsin winters.
Ran a 90's S14 240SX with the limited slip and Blizzaks. Was awesome in the snow.
I had Blizzak WS90s on my RWD BMW for all five years I owned it. My wife has an AWD SUV with all weather tires. She drove the BMW once in the snow and was shocked to find she felt safer in it than her SUV. The only real advantage AWD gives you in the snow is traction to get moving. Once you’re moving, which wheels are propelling you is much less important. What becomes important then is your ability to stop and maneuver. And that is dictated by your tires.
The Blizzaks are excellent on a heavier SUV (my old shitbox Wrangler) and served me very well last winter going between the mainland and Cape Breton
Blizzak hands down. I get 3 winters out of a set no problem.
I've had my Alenza A/S ultras for just under 30k miles and they're effectively done. They were great tires but didn't last anywhere close to the 80k miles. I drove in dry, wet, hot and cold conditions, on good roads and bad and had no issues other than wear.
Ya, I have Weatherpeaks on my 2013 Avalon. 29,000 miles and they are at 2/32. They have less than 100 miles of gravel use as well. I cannot recommend them.
I live in Massachusetts, I found the grandtek to be terrible in the snow. I got rid of them the first time I slid.
