A set of studded Firestone winterforce..
7 seasons and still great.
I've driven about 200 miles on my new Weatherpeaks on my stock Subaru Outback. I was shocked with how good the tires performed in the downpour. On very wet roads with massive puddles, the Weatherpeaks felt like my old tires did on completely dry roads. Grip was fantastic. No slipping at all. Even when I hit really large puddles at speed I didn't hydroplane. The tires do feel slightly "softer" in the turns when its dry than the stock tires but they still feel great...and are a much smoother and quieter ride overall. Even on dry roads I feel like the car has better control.
Notably less road noise than the fire Stones I had before and pretty good grip. I'm happy with them.
I have Winterforce UV2 tires for my SUV and they are great. Been through some crazy snow in them without issue.
Another set of tires I would recommend that is almost never mentioned is Firestone Destination A/Ts. It has always been my go to truck tire. Although I haven't put them on my Tacoma yet, they did great on our '01 Sierra, '05 Ranger, and my uncle's '16 Silverado.
I have Firestone Destination LE2s, and I haven't had much trouble driving in the snow with them. To be fair I haven't ever had snow tires, so I don't have much to compare to. If you have experience driving in the snow already, and drive slow you should be fine.
I previously had the OEM, Pirelli Scorpion tires which I liked. The Firestone Destination LE3 tires seems to be equivalent to them..
I had my factory Firestone’s taken off at 35k and they probably still had another 5-10k mikes left in them.
Firestones don’t last, Michelin are worse, and Vredestein are hard to find, and replace.
Same story. Popped three in the last month, potholes are awful here on Long Island, and my Arteon is paying the price.
