I got Blizzaks last winter and they’ve been amazing. Last year I drove across MI (5 hours) in a severe snowstorm warning (1ft+ snow) and a snow squall warning. I must have passed close to 100 cars/trucks in ditches. I never felt unsafe traction wise, I was planted. My Dad also had them on his old Charger 392 years ago and we took it ice fishing. Since then i’ve loved Blizzaks.
I bought a MK3 Jetta 2.0 gas just to get me through for a couple months after I crashed my 4Runner. It was one of my favorite cars. Decent power, handled great. Coldest a/c and hottest heat of any car I have ever owned. I put a good set of snow tires on it and it would go anywhere.
so far they’re quiet, grippy under wet conditions & slightly better in handling & ride than the Dunlop Grandtrek that came with them. Haven’t driven them in snow yet…
Honestly, for that run rate, any good tire brand works. Bridgestone, MRF, Ceat.
Blizzaks are the best for snow, x-ice are the best for ice. Depends on how you drive. If you’re late breaking all the time then you want x-ice for better braking grip, if you drive slow in the winter and plan your stops then blizzaks will have better acceleration traction.
I’ve been driving a Honda CRV with Bridgestone Blizzaks and haven’t had any issues.
I vote for ws-90, those tires are unstoppable in our Ontario winters. Had them on my old mk4, my e60 550i bmw, and will be getting some now for my 7.5 GTI
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.
Extreme summer class is a tire where your comfort’s not even on the radar. I took my re71RS on a hour highway drive to inital heat cycle then. Way more rough and loud then Conti ECS02 I daily
These tires are trash. Bought my Weatherpeaks 11 months ago, drove in Minnesota April 2024-March 2025, 15k miles since my purchase on a babied and garaged 2022 Jeep Compass - no daily commuting, no offroading, alignments and rotations as scheduled, inflated properly, suspension no issues, and I'm at 4/32 on the back, 5/32 on front - WTH these are 70k tires!
