One word from a senior Minnesotian
Bridgestone (Blizzacks) premium Winter Tire Possibly around the same price but superior in every way.
I don't understand what the noise complaints are about, honestly. I didn't notice anything different from my stock turanzas.
They're the best tires i've ever owned.
I’d go with Bridgestone Alenza AS Ultras. They are solid in all types of weather, quiet, and absorb bumps in the road very well. I have them on my cx9 and plan to put them on my wife’s cx50 when the time comes. I’ve been very impressed by them.
I run Pilot Sports on my 2015 6 GT, and they are noiseless. FAR better than original Bridgestones, and last well.
Continental ECF. They're 200's but more endurance focused. Not a fast tire but can stay consistent through a whole HPDE session. Really good performance in the rain, somehow they move a bunch of water. Long lasting as well... many heat cycles.
Great tires for the price. I have them on my own car better performance in the Stock Bridgestone great dry and wet handling low noise and appears to be wearing well. Performances just below top tier for a low mid-tier price.
Too bad you don't have 16s, then you could buy the Continental DWSs(205/50/16s on mine) for the ultimate upgrade in rainy day tire. I spent 45 minutes on Saturday chucking my car actively trying to get it to slip and slide in the rain on mountain road bends and it just wouldn't let go.
I replaced the Dunlops with a set of Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02s with a bit higher treadwear rating, so hopefully they last much longer with the alignment being fixed.
Potenza Sports have a really stiff side wall. They in turn produce a loudee road noise.
Some people like them, I really hate them. I find them slow, hard and not grippy, not puncture resistant at all, heavy. My back wheel would just slide around on its own when it was wet out.
