We got Bridgestone Weatherpeaks instead. Not a full snow tire like the Blizzaks, but good snow performance for an all seasons set of tires.
A couple weeks ago I attended the endurance race and Continental was giving out used tires, so maybe.
You can't go wrong with the Continental Kryptotal Fr/Re combo. I've tried DHF/Aggressor, Assegai/Aggressor, Dissector/Aggressor, DHF/DHR2 and Assegai/DHR2 and the Kryptotals are by far my favorite combo. They offer amazing traction with inexplicably low rolling resistance.
Continentals are probably the best of the bunch but also most expensive - have heard good things about all 4 on sedans.
Just get Blizzaks, by far the best bang for your buck winter tire, they will need to be swapped for your regular tires every year, but they are awesome in anything this state will throw at you. I have used them for years through several iterations on multiple vehicles.
I've run everything from the cheapest of cheap to high-end and can tell you there is a difference in performance. I drive a lot, so i now by all weather tires (Bridgestone currently) that are 4 season (incl snow rated).
Contis VC7 were better on ice AND snow but especially road noise here in Montreal.
Going on my fourth winter with Continental Viking Contact 7’s. Unbelievable tires. Great in all conditions with unbelievable tread wear.
RS11s are indeed not very popular. This is the case because it sits in between the S22 and the R11 which are both great tires while the RS11 doesn't offer the best of both worlds.
I think the ProContacts are known to be junk. I upgraded to Continental DWS. If those fail, I'm switching brands for life.
