Tires BRIDGESTONE or SUMITOMO
I use Bridgestone Weatherpeaks on my 2018 Forester but I live in the east coast of Canada.
I'm running Bridgestone Potenza. I've gone through two sets of Micheline Pilot Sports within 25k miles. I'm hoping these Bridgestones last longer. In terms of performance I don't notice a difference between the two.
Our OEM Primacies are still great in snow after 25k miles.
Bridgestones are all I buy.
I literally just told my wife that I found these Weatherpeaks to be better in the snow than our dedicated winter tires, and not so bad on ice neither.
I roll a set of Bridgestone Blizzak WS90’s on my Chevy Bolt. Very happy with the performance on snow and especially stability on icy roads. As always drive cautiously but the driving feel and confidence is night and day compared to “3 season” tires.
Get blizzak's. You wont regret it. Front of my Beemer acts like a snow plough everywhere I go. Rwd only, no added weight, absolutely unstoppable... (pretty far north myself)
Did a quick look up on the tires, they’re Bridgestone alensa 001’s, which are a street/sport truck summer tire with a 300tw rating…looking at almost 2k for a new set
I have found it quite hard to predict, but Bridgestone were extremely noisy for me. Then I had Michelin which were slightly quieter but still didn't satisfy me completely.
The problem is that the more aggressive the snow [tires] the noisier they were. After 4 seasons on Blizzaks I was ready to burn them.
