I ran Duratracs on my truck for a few seasons and they did fine in the winter. Last season I got a set of Blizzaks for the winter and they're game changing! The Duratracs were good in the winter but the Blizzaks are insanely good! You can't beat a dedicated set of winter tires in my opinion!
I’ve run both KO2’s and Blizzaks for the winter on my truck and I travel to the mountains regularly. I fully recommend spending the extra money for a proper winter tire set. The KO2’s weren’t bad, but its night and day compared to the blizzaks
As for tires I would recommend 2024 stock for better brands like Bridgestone. Chinese tires will cause noise and easily a 10% drop in fuel economy. I've personally experienced this.
All about the Blizzaks. They make driving safer, but also FUN.
I have Bridgestone All Season 6 on my car and they are extremely good on all types of roads, at freezing temperatures, and on wet roads. Can’t think of a single bad thing to say about them.
The LE3 is probably the best value tire to get. They last a long time - for a while they had a 65k warranty but regularly lasted 80k miles with regular alignments.
The le3 are the only oem style tire id ever recommend. I’ve never seen a manufacturing issue, they last forever and are quite quiet for what they are.
The Bridgestone RE71RS is a 200tw performance tire. They will wear quickly - meaning you might get 10k miles out of them (give or take).
For reference, crappy and expensive Bridgestone Alenzas (summer tires) were put on mine (21 inch)
For whatever reason my Bridgestone tires always lasted half of their warranty if that, and generally sucked all around.
