Tires NITTO or BRIDGESTONE
I second all the Blizzak comments. Ran LM32s on several high power RWD cars with solid traction in the dry and able to get my Mustang and Jag around in snow just fine if it wasnt touching the undercarriage.
Nitto trail grapplers by far. Best tyre I’ve used
The LM32s had more dry traction than the factory all seasons on my Veloster Turbo.
But the Nitto SN-2 has been long wearing so far, 2 seasons and still plenty of life to go.
Conti DW is a good tire. A bit soft of a sidewall so some vague response. Bridgestone Potenza s04 pole position is better. Better response. Good in wet and good life. Closest to a Michelin Pilot super sport you'll get. Tire Rack rated it a close 2nd if I remember right. I have had both on my M3. I'd get the Bridgestone again, have them now.
Bought new tires - Bridgestone Potenza RE002 205/50R16. Yeah, it is not stance size, but I'm very bored of driving my static low Corrado with low profile tyres, and would like to enjoy the driving R36 engine without slow down before every pit
I use Blizzak DMV2 (suv version of the WS80) on my Santa Fe. Unstoppable in deep snow, but that has mattered maybe twice so far this winter. On ice they have been better than my all seasons, but they have not been incredible.
I found the Bridgestone tire to be alittle more forgiving and last longer. The grip on these tires are both amazing and hard to tell them apart on snow and ice.
I do have a backup set of Bridgestone Turanza (205/55R16) all seasons but I am in the market for new tires now.
I have had a few sets of blizzacks, and while they were great on slick roads, I found they were not good going through a few inches or more of snow and were terribly "mushy".
