Continental ice contact XTRM is absolutely fantastic if you have a Tirecraft near you I believe it is sold there. I have the studded versions and they are amazing.
All four are solid choices. I’d go with the Contis over the other 3 though. Outstanding tire.
The vikingcontact are a top tier tire, but the falken are not far behind. If your budget is limited the falken is a solid option
After having tyre wall damage to my Hankook run-flats, thought of switching to radials for better durability & ride comfort. Such a great decision, indeed! I finalized with Continental UC6 87V.
I had both the Turanza EL440 and those exact Firehawk tires. The Turanza I had would have lasted maybe 55k or 60k if it wasn't for me getting one damaged from a road hazard.
I've always gone Blizzaks. They have been a phenomenal tire when it comes to driving in blizzard like conditions. Hell I was going 70 during a blizzard on a freeway when I had my cobalt in high school with blizzaks.... probably not the best decision back then, but they got my younger self home at the end of the day while many others were in the ditch.
I was down to Michelin pilot sport vs continental extreme contact and went with continental because there were a lot of reviews saying that the michelins wore out too fast. The continental tires have been the best I've ever had. .
For what it’s worth, I run Continental ExtremeContact Sports. They’re almost as good as the PS4’s for a little less money.
I have DWS06+ on the Marauder and Michelin PS4's on the Kia. The Conti's are quiet and grippy, but I'm noticing they are cracking in between the tread, and they're not that old. I don't have enough seat time to judge the PS4's on my Kia, plus with them being the OEM tire, they may suck worse that regular, non OEM versions.
I had blizzaks for a few seasons after a set of very good dunlops. I was severely dissatisfied in the e blizzak performance. Not only did they wear quickly but they were awful in the snow and dry. We have X-ices on the Tiguan and they are far superior to the blizzaks.
