Tires Pirelli or Nexen
Big brands like those are all fine for a daily driver crossover.
My personal favourites to mount are Bridgestone blizzaks, and have had wonderful results on my dad's rwd BMW E46 with Pirelli ice zero fr.
Pirelli Scorpion Weatheractive’s are pretty epic in snow & ice
I have an X5 2021 40i M Sport package, and last week, I purchased a set of front 275/35R-22 Pirelli Scorpion Winter 2 XL, rear 315/30R-22 Pirelli Scorpion Winter 2 PNCS, Noise Cancelling NON-run flats, I live in New Jersey. It snowed last night only 1 inch and rained and sleeted all day. I took a 120-mile round trip this afternoon on rt 78 today on these tires. I can tell you these tires performed excellent in the wet and ice. I had full control of the SUV. So far, tires are good.
I have them installed on my m50i and just tried them out today in the snow/slush/ice. Excellent grip overall, no sliding or wheel spinning.
Just fitted the PZero 2023 TT Race tyres. OMG. What a delight to fit. No tools needed. Straight on the rims. No need to pop them.
Nexen WinGuards are some good, budget dedicated winter tires... they perform better than they should for the price...
My experience with Pirellis in the past, great wear and performance but horribly noisy after about 20,000 miles, to the point I replaced a set on my old Touareg long before they needed it because they were so annoying.
F1 tires make me so angry this season. In at least 50% of the races they are waaay too durable, like you could do a 0-stop race. Because Pirelli are a bunch of cowards who are scared to death of races with 2 or more stops
Im sorry but these tires are a joke. Soft medium/medium soft should never be a strategy.
