I am about to swap over to the Bridgestone Blizzak WS80s I bought last season. Very pleased with the wear and performance. My only complaint is that they are a little loud in wet weather. I ran General Altimax Arctic for six seasons and that was a great tire. Bang for the buck was superb.
Continental DWS06 are hands down my favorite all season tire. I have lived in PA, FL and NC and it's always my go to choice for an all season tire. Super quiet.. last forever and grippy.. what else can you ask for?
I just put the Bridgestone Potenza RE980AS on my Alltrack (225/45/18) and I really like them.
I am running Blizzak WS80's. The Tiguan has a really good 4motion system in my opinion. Have driven this vehicle in some pretty harsh snow conditions in Upstate NY and Ontario. It has never let me down.
Bridgestone RE-71R alllll day for me.
M3 Non Snow: BFGoodrich gForce Comp 2...M3 Snow: Continental WinterContact Si (very, very happy with these over years of being a Blizzak driver)...Wagon Non Snow: Continental ExtremeContact DWS (very happy so far)
The DWS06 has been a phenomenal all season tire for me...These Contis have proven well worth it, as even with a FWD car, I'm able to drive on snow with minimal slippage.
Continental ExtremeContact Sport, 225/40/18
These are the tires this car should have come with from the factory. They are smoother, quieter, and (obviously) grippier than the OEM A/S tires in dry and wet conditions.
I had Ecopias (EDIT: EL-400s) on my Mazda3. They would not die. At like 90k miles I replaced them because they had gotten hard and the snow traction declined... they still had a decent amount of tread left.
My Civic Hybrid has Bridgestone Ecopias. Grip is pretty bad, but they are very predictable, in that they kind of start to warn you when they are losing grip, then gradually go from having grip to not having grip. Very smooth transition and very easy to correct any slides. Have noticed they appear to be wearing quite quickly as well.
