Tires Firestone or MRF
Firestone Indy 500s on my e36 and conti extreme contacts on the 335i. The 500s are solid for the price
Currently running Firehawk Indy 500s on my MK7.. Great grip, little to no road noise, a bit cheaper than the Michelins....
Therefore Firestone builds a tire that doesn't require tire blankets to have a safe level of performance.
A set of studded Firestone winterforce..
7 seasons and still great.
I've driven about 200 miles on my new Weatherpeaks on my stock Subaru Outback. I was shocked with how good the tires performed in the downpour. On very wet roads with massive puddles, the Weatherpeaks felt like my old tires did on completely dry roads. Grip was fantastic. No slipping at all. Even when I hit really large puddles at speed I didn't hydroplane. The tires do feel slightly "softer" in the turns when its dry than the stock tires but they still feel great...and are a much smoother and quieter ride overall. Even on dry roads I feel like the car has better control.
Notably less road noise than the fire Stones I had before and pretty good grip. I'm happy with them.
I have Winterforce UV2 tires for my SUV and they are great. Been through some crazy snow in them without issue.
Same with Firestone fuel fighters. They were all I could get in a hurry.
I have beef with MRF, their compound is so hard it makes it seem like I am on roller skates in a wet skating ring when it’s raining.
Avoid the Firestone on ridge, had a nail in a BRAND NEW tire and they tried to sell me 2 new ties, my car isn't even a year old and they tried to rip me off. I got it plugged up and will never go back to them.
