Tires Goodyear or DEXTER
I'm a big fan of the GY SC3R for HPDE. The grip is so impressive once you get some heat into them.
Put new tires on the crosstrek (some Goodyear from Costco) and they are better but I think that's to be expected.
Goodyear eagle ones on the factory 19s. Solid ride, comfortable, and plenty of traction
I've got Goodyear Reliant All-Seasons on mine currently. Got them for $62 a piece last Novermber, and have good luck with most Goodyear and Cooper tires.
Tires did extremely well and im very impressed with the Goodyear eagle F1 super sports, no greasiness, super communicative, and got gripper as heat went up.
If you’re keeping the stock 225/55R17 size I highly recommend Goodyear Viva 3s. They did amazing all Michigan winter delivering pizza, never got stuck. Solid All-Seasons
I have a 2012 accord and have Goodyear weather ready on them. They currently lasted 71k and still have some tread left. I live in PA, had no issues during winters.
If your car feels like it’s bouncing/bobbing sideways (I’m guessing that’s what you mean by “bubbling”), it’s probably due to the softer material used on the winter tires. I’m running a set of Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady and they show the same behavior. The effect will less noticeable eventually as the tire passes the break-in period.
Goodyears I noticed don't handle the Ph roads too well.
Kevlar my ass, I've already had a puncture from a weenie nail, they have 0 grip on dry pavement and even less on wet, they are barely passable on dry offroad but absolute garbage in snow or ice. They are really the "worst of both worlds" when it comes to all-terrain tires. I got 6k miles on them before I gave up, just put on BFG trail/terrain tires and they are better in every way.
