Tires Firestone or Barum
I used to commute from Ithaca to Syracuse daily in a mk5 GLI. I had studded Firestone Winterforces on steel wheels. That car was an absolute beast in the snow and regularly outperformed 4x4’s.
Sad sam stavio sve 4 nove Barumke, i prijatno sam se iznenadio kako su mek\u0161e i to\u0161e od Klebera.
I just replaced mine with the same that it came with. Decent tires got 55k out of them.
Ich kann Barum empfehlen, das ist eine Mittelklasse Tochterfirma von Continental
They have low rolling resistance according to Discount Tires tests, are light, and still grip well off road
I have Firestone Weathergrip all-weather tires in my escape and they have been just fine driving the past 3 winters in Calgary, with the odd trip out to Banff. I would say they are only questionable once the weather hits -30’s. Other than that they have been comparable to my blizzaks.
Firestone weathergrip on a Ford ecosport and they work well. Ive done Banff on snowy days and down to Radium as well .As always drive with extra caution.
Fair warning they're sketchy in heavy rain and temps below 40 f
I’ve had both the firestones and pilot sports on my corvette. The wet weather grip on the PS is much better. I would fishtail pretty regularly with the firestones. Would not recommend if you plan to drive in the rain.
I’ve had both tires on my Charger. The firestones are very noisy.
