Tires Firestone or Nokia
I've used the weathergrip on a subaru crosstrek before and was pretty happy with them. They lasted a good while and always got me where I had to go. Not nearly as much grip as a dedicated snow tire, but they were run year round and lasted 50k miles, so it's a decent compromise.
I’m a fan of Nokian WRG4s
We put them on our 2018 XT this year, studless. Been pretty good so far. The -30C we've been getting in Calgary lately though there's still some slip on the hard sheer ice but no way I'd want to try regular all seasons!
I have the Ones on my 1997 Toyota Estima Emina and they're great. Nice steering response and like Nokian's other all-season tires, they do great in the wet. I also appreciate the aramid (kevlar) sidewalls.
Best tires I've used in order are:
Nokian Hakka r3 (r5, r10, r8)
Nokian One. They are cheaper than top tier tires with the same or better ratings. They have a 80k mile tread wear warranty, reinforced sidewalls and great grip in the rain. I live in the PNW and have had them for only a couple months but I highly recommend.
I run Firestone Indy 500. But I only drive it in the summer. Was the best Bang for my dollar up here.
Best AT's out there for snow that I've found is Firestone Destination XTs (exculding their AT2's due to your vehicle).
I'm a little late to the discussion, but I had some Nokian all-weather tires for a couple years (on a Golf) they were better than all seasons, but definitely not as good as good winter tires in the, uh, winter.
I had G-2, G-3 and now G-4. but experiencing dry rot on the G-4's and can't keep them balanced--shimmy at certain speeds even when balanced, and they are getting noisier and noisier--thought I had a wheel hub issue.
