Tires OEM Mazda or GISLAVED
I commuted 100 miles a day in my CX5 in snowy Maine. I had a 6speed manual transmission and snow tires and never had a problem.
Pros: no problems in snow
Vehicle:
Mazda
I also swapped the stock tires for A/T tires, mostly for the looks, but they actually helped in sand and rough surfaces.
Pros: helped in sand
Vehicle:
Mazda
I've had Gislaved Nordfrost 200...My favorites were the Gislaved and will be getting new ones this year.
Pros: favorites, getting new ones
Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
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.
Pros: long wear, good grip, durable
I used to drive Gislaved studded tires in my Tuscon for 2yrs, great tires.
Pros: great tires
Cons: noisey ride
Vehicle:
Hyundai Tucson
I have Hakka R5 on my GTI and Gislaved on my Golf SW. Both have been excellent for me and my needs.
Pros: excellent for my needs
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I am running Gislaved Nordfrost tires with the factory studs in Canada.
Vehicle:
Ford
I had studded gislaved nord frost tires on a FWD Chevy Spectrum back in the day and was unstoppable.
Pros: unstoppable
Vehicle:
Chevrolet
I currently drive 2018 XC90 r5 and live in Montreal, Canada with Gislaved tires. There is absolutely nothing in Volvo XC90 that makes it ideal car to handle large amount of snow.
Cons: not ideal for snow
Vehicle:
Volvo XC90
I've noticed that tires go fairly quick on my Mazda3
Cons: wear quickly
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
