I have a 2009 Nissan versa (fwd) that I've driven through all kinds of Canadian winter weather. With Michelin winter tires it handles just fine.
My wife's Prius is awesome in the snow. Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 tires. Glad to hear you are going that route, just be aware there are different models of blizzak tires.
Bridgestone Blizzak tires.
Our 2009 Fit will go further than any vehicle in the snow that isn’t also wearing snow tires.
I drove my dads SUV 4.5hrs last night on the terrible roads. Brand new Michelin tires helped a ton.
Looking for QUIET comfortable tire with excellent all weather performance. Tread life not a concern.
Primacy has excellent ratings. Defender rated slightly below but has longer tread life.
Past noisy experience with noisy V tread designs (Bridgestone & Goodyear) discounts CrossClimate.
Alpin 5s are great snow tires
grab some bridgestones or goodyears. solid budget tires that won't let you down.
Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 is the way to go. In my country they have been tested and one of the best tires. They can have high mileage before you will have to replace them.
I live in southern Ontario in Canada and after one winter of driving around mainly in the city I decided that they weren\u2019t enough especially when going up any sort of incline with snow on the ground. I recently got a set of Michelin Ice-X tires and it makes a world of a difference. In the end if there\u2019s anything more than a light dusting on the ground dedicated winters is the way to go. Also for context I drive a FWD Volvo V50. All in all they are great but as someone else said. Jack of all trades, master of none.
Hate those michelin x-ice tires. Just drive on your summer tires they will not be any different.
