Tires MICHELIN or GISLAVED
Have Michelins on my car. The Michelins are starting their 3 or 4th season with still tons of tread life remaining. I have bombed through snow that was easy 1-1.5feet and never got stuck or had any concerns!
Michelin x-ice for sure. I bought a used set years ago and got a few seasons out of them, and then replaced them with Blizzaks. Regretted it immediately; the x-ice were so much better.
I went for the X-Ice on our car and mini-van. No complaints 3 winters in on both.
Big fan of the X-ice Snows though
I have used Michelin X-Ice and they are great.
For a good balance of LONG wear and good grip I've been getting Gislaved NordFrosts. Those things seriously take four winters of high mileage, mostly bare pavement commuting to wear out.
I’ve had very good luck with X-Ice over the years.
The Michelin PA5 is also an excellent tire.
Came with Hankooks Ventus S1 Evo 3. My previous car I was running Michelin Cup 2's and while definitely more grip they didn't last very long.
The Defender IIs aren't like the Defender LTXs that I had 2 sets of previously. These new ones were unacceptably noisy and rough riding.
