My friend tried the HyperTrac and said they are better than the Nokian Z/line and Michelin AS4s.
Hakkapeliittas FTW, have the 9s on my STI and my dad has the 10s on his 440i, unbelievable amount of grip especially with awd and LSDs
These are Hakkapeliitta 9 studded that I got for a deal because the 10s are out already. Jokes aside I’ve never driven on a tire that gave me this much confidence in snow/ice.
They performed admirably, especially for the price. To my ears they were quieter than the factory Dunlops, and they definitely lasted longer. I replaced them after around 45,000 miles (~72,000 km since I see you are a northern neighbor) because of a sidewall bubble, but that was courtesy of a massive pothole rather than any sort of defect. There was still tread life remaining.
Studded Cooper discoverer snowclaws not much to look at but excellent traction on snow and ice
I bought a set of Nokian One tires for my 2019 Civic EX back in September. I believe the sidewall says all-season. They’ve been excellent so far.
I like the Nokian WR G4 for my 16" wheels as it's a proper *all weather* and electric friendly (like most Nokians.) Not sure if they make them in a 205/45r17, but they are good for wet/cold/winter and just ok in the dry/warm.
I would personally recommend that you get a tire like the Nokian Hakkapelita R3 or R5. They are by far the best winter tires I have used.
Easily, Coopers. Ran the AT3 on my last truck (Silverado). Had right at 58,000 miles on them when I sold the truck with plenty of life left on the tires.
Buyer beware. Stay away from these Pep Boy exclusive tires. My wife was drawn in by the "buy 3 get 1" promotion and bought the Cooper Adventure tires for her minivan. These are the worst tires that we've ever had. The tires could not be balanced correctly.
