Tires Continental or BRIDGESTONE
I've had these for the past 3 winters. They're great.
I've put Blizzaks on all of my vehicles, including my '24 Kona. They are fantastic studless snow tires.
I've run the Bridgestone weather peaks on my FWD accord in 2 winters, they worked great. Did some insanely sketchy stuff and never felt like I was out of control.
I changed my model 3 highland to alll season tires, specifically Continental AllSeasonContact 2, they are designed for northern Europe climate so more for wet and cold and extra durability.
I driven over 5000km with them and the consumption is slightly higher, nothing worth telling about, same with noise levels
Have 15k on our DWS06 plus tires, about one third worn, should get 40k without much trouble, and I'm running the factory staggered size, rotate with every 6k mile oil change. Tires have been pretty good, they run quiet, grip decent for an All Season, not bad in the rain (in real heavy rain they can hydroplane a bit). Have ran them in light snow (3" or less) and are fine, as well as good performance when cold.
Continental Tire for the win!
I have gone from the Bridgestone Turansa All Season 6 and they have been great so far and a bit cheaper than the Michelins.
One recent set of tires (Bridgestone Potenza Sports - AMAZING!) less than a year ago, new brakes all around approximately 6 months ago.
I currently have the Continental Sport Contact 5 SSR tires. They were what CarMax put on when I bought it. I don’t care for the run flat technology as my insurance covers towing as well as I have a plug kit and portable compressor in my car if it’s not bad enough for those to handle it. I was looking at the Kumho LX Platinum KU27 but really don’t know much about the specifics of tires. Looking for advice on my current choice and/or recommendation. Thanks!
Ran the blizzaks through 4-6 inches of snow and was barely making it through that. I never had less confidence in the snow than on those WS80 blizzaks. They were almost worse than the Sotozorro 3’s I had on my R two winters ago. Those I’ll excuse those because they were at least OK in the dry, otherwise they were pretty terrible in anything but light snow.
