Tires Firestone or OEM Subaru
Well I have a 24 Limited with the 20s and live 2 miles up a dirt road. The tires are fine to me. I have an outback and tundra with 18s and don't notice much difference.
My Chrysler 300S 5.7 does shockingly well in medium snow. Blizzard conditions are not acceptable for that car, so give me a Subaru Legacy GT Limited Spec B with Blizzaks
I have a 25 yo Subaru Impreza RS that is completely unaffected by snow. That is as long as I put proper snow tires on in the winter, I forgot to switch one winter before a storm and my summer tires were pointless to say the least.
Its the tires folks, not the car. Anyone can do that, if you have reliable tires.
I had a 1999 Explorer and had it at the dealer for an oil change. While it was there word came down from Ford: if it\u2019s an Explorer with Firestone tires, switch to Goodyear! So, for about $40 I got an oil change and 5 new tires (including the spare). Best deal I ever got on a car!
I have the Firestone XTs on my 3rd gen Tundra, with about 16k miles on them. Good traction all around, and have worn well so far. I like the look of them as well. Only nitpick is they can vibrate a bit under braking at slower speeds.
Im liking my firestone destination at2. I ripped a huge chunk out of my falken at4w sidewall and all I could get in the small town I was in at the time was the AT2s. I drive a lot of highway on my road trip so the lighter weight and slightly less blocky tread has resulted in a decent boost to my fuel economy. It also seems to be much quieter than the at4w.
We had Firestone Transforces on my dad\u2019s truck when I was in high school. Slightest hint of mud and they would pack up and slick off in an instant, but man they lasted a long time.
The fucking console rattles like a mother fucker. The stock tires are pieces of shit. The clutch pedal will make noise when it is cold because they used shitty spot welds on the pedal assembly. The ac compressor will probably fail within 50k miles.
Those are suredrive sold by firestone. Do not even think of taking these on any ice or snow. Firestone sells all season tires that have the capability of going in snow but these are not it. These are entry level tires.good enough for highway and city driving but that\u2019s it.
