I swapped them for Bridgestone Turanza and after 20,000 when I traded in, they were maybe a third worn.
But if you can afford them, real winter tires like Bridgestone Blizzaks are a huge upgrade. Not just in snow, but on dry cold days where even good All Seasons are losing a lot of traction.
My one experience with Bridgestone was excellent on a Ford Expedition. Got 65k out of them an excellent traction.
I have Bridgestone Potenza RE71R's on my Z and the grip is phenominal. Its a summer tire though and they can be slippery in low temps so take that into consideration
Go with the 215 and save some money. You’ll have plenty of grip and be fine. I ran that size Blizzaks on my past WRXs.
When it comes to brands, best ones are Bridgestone, but remain the costliest along with Michelin. MRF, CEAT and Apollo offer similar cost and have average lifecycle and performance.
My AWD Sienna hybrid is great in the Chicago snow on the stock Bridgestone tires. I love it.
I went through a set of Blizzaks in a year. I drove like 20k miles and didn’t change them in the summer.
‘24 Altima VC-Turbo overpriced factory Bridgestone Turanza LS100’s tread is low already
I have had COUNTLESS Bridgestone OE tires come from many brands worn out in 20k or usually less. The aftermarket replacements are also junk from Badstone
