For the past 3 winters I ran Michelin Xice, this year I went with Blizzak WS80s and man, they are on another level entirely.
same fxt same blizzaks - cant complain after 5 years of snowmobile like winter performance.
I've got Blizzaks on my WRX and I absolutely love them.
Liked the Blizzaks years ago in unplowed snow, but around here the issue is more slush and ice so partial to various offerings from Continental with more sipes and less aggressive tread pattern.
Blizzaks on my wrx, amazing in the snow and ice, and handle cold like a champ.
I have never been letdown by my RE-71R's! On my second set and never going back to Pilot Sports again.
Just reporting first snow, 6", with Sumimoto 205.60.16 Ice Edge snow tires on 16"Austin wheels, GREAT. Soft tire, slows cornering cheap really grips, comfortable.
On our V90 Cross Country, we grabbed a set of 18-Inch - 5-Double Spoke Alloy Wheel - Silver (Part # 31428595), put some Bridgestone Blizzack DM-V2's (235/55R18) on them. Car is rock solid in the snow.
Riding on Ecopia 422 215 16 inch stock tires. At 34k they just may be a little more audible - emphasis on little.
The only tire brand I never liked was Sumitomo. They were always much narrower than spec and seemed to loose grip when you needed it most.
