My Outback in Australia came with factory fitted Bridgestone Dueller H/P Sports. Got 72K km (44.7K miles) out of the first set and although I could have probably kept them longer, a "buy 3 get 4th free" sale encouraged me to replace all 4 with the same tyres
Bridgestone Blizzak are the best winter tires I’ve ever used in my A4
I have a Corolla Cross and use Bridgestone Blizzak. Absolutely unstoppable in deep snow! Been recommending and using Bridgestone Blizzak tires for as long as I can remember. There’s not a better winter tire on the market.
On our cars we have had the Blizzak WS60/70/80 and Blizzak DM-V2 for 20 years. The Blizzaks have been awesome but want to test the Hakkas to see if they are better than the Blizzaks.
I've used Blizzaks for a long time and they are great. I keep going back because they work great.
The Blizzak we have are 9 years old, but they are still in a good condition. We drive about 10k km/yr. So I guess the extra price you pay for top brand winter tires is for durability. I know there’s also comfort and noise level difference between good and less-good tires, but again I don’t feel any difference.
I run Blizzaks on my XC70 in the winter, and it's a utter MONSTER in the snow. I've embarrassed 4WD vehicles with good tires on snowy forest roads. I went into the mountains early season last year with just the all-seasons on after a minor snow event (a couple inches, plows had been through) and skidded slightly off a plowed gravel road onto a soft shoulder. Never would have happened with the Blizzaks, I'd just been lazy and hadn't put them on yet - they got put on later that afternoon. I don't notice much of a gas mileage hit that the winter fuel blend doesn't mostly account for anyway.
Bridgestone - from a handling perspective they are great - from a road noise perspective - they are a bit loud. I won't buy them again, but I'm certainly not throwing them away.
Making a left turn into a business parking lot, I heard a pop and the left front dropped and the sound of rubber getting mushed. Not even a bubble before this happened.
Bridgestone Potenza RE92 are great on dry pavement; but they are a scary ride with RWD on wet, snowy, or icy pavement.
