Tires NITTO or BRIDGESTONE
I just got mine couple of days ago. The tires did well on slushy road.
Bridgestones are top rated. Ive been using them for 20 years in Minnesota (brutal road conditions) so incredibly superior to regular summer/all weather tires.
I opted for the Nitto Nomad Grapplers myself!
Bridgestone battlecruise, made the switch after burning through too many scorchers and they’ve been a peach so far
These made in the USA Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus Grand Touring All-Season tires rated for 70,000 miles... The Ecopia EP422 Plus is one of Bridgestone's Grand Touring All-Season tires developed for the drivers of coupes, sedans, minivans and small crossover vehicles looking for more tire life per gallon by delivering longer wear and better handling. Designed to enhance vehicle fuel economy by reducing tire rolling resistance along with the vehicle's carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, Ecopia EP422 Plus tires deliver year-round, all-season traction, even in light snow.
Just gave the Weatherpeaks a solid test in snow and ice on a road trip through Seattle and Oregon. On my 2021 CX-5 Signature they performed quite well.
I had Nitto RidgeGrapplers… I had them for 4 years and had tons of tread left after 40000 miles until I got a new job where my truck stayed on that dark asphalt 10 hours a day and they started cracking
They are lovely road tires. For anything off-road? Not so much.
Here's the 18" Cadiz wheels that came off 2015 Golf R. Stock 16" Astana wheels are beyond hideous, they are also heavy (e.g. 21 lbs.). As soon as you mount any sticky tires, irrelevant of size, your range will decrease by ~10%. The sole purpose of low resistance Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus tires is to float due to super firm carcass. These tires are terrible in dry and scary in wet.
They slip like crazy in my g in the rain. NT05s in 285 width. Good dry performance. Scares me a little on raining freeway rides.
