I've been swapping out my tires every November-April for Blizzaks. Proper winter tires are totally worth it though. A WRX with winter tires is a beautiful thing.
A set of 17's and Blizzaks will work wonders in snow/ice conditions ...
Alpin 5s are awesome. Never an issue in as much as 4-6" of snow.
If you have issues with your current tires, consider getting a all weather tire like CrossClimate 2s.
the Ariya the best upgrade over the mediocre factory tires is the Michelin CrossClimate 2 (EV-friendly sizes) they handle the weight and torque way better, ride quieter, and you’ll notice way less range drop compared to cheaper options.
I ran Alpin 4s and 5s on my F80. Upstate NY, drove through some pretty sketchy road conditions completely fine
I had my last winter with my F80 last year, and used Blizzaks on staggered 18” wheels. Never let me down through the shitty Canadian snow.
I used Michelins X-Ice snow tires on my F80. Highly recommended.
After 2 years and 20k miles my cross climate 2 started to lose traction on ice. Still at 8/32nds though.
As a rule, I prefer Michelin, but I’m not a fan of the Sport. Just had them put on mine and they’re not as good as the Primacy.
