Tires Toyo or BRIDGESTONE
I like my Blizzaks. They've gotten me through some dicey whiteouts and snow storms.
Wife and son drive Blizzaks - she on her 4Runner here in New England; son who lives in Denver and does a ton of snowboarding (Jetta). Both very happy with them.
We have Blizzaks WS90s on our CX5. They were on our Highlander before that. This will be season four on them and they will be replaced because of age, not wear. I love the Blizzaks and will buy them again for sure. Great ride, great grip in all conditions, and surprising longevity.
My Mazda3's all have had Blizzak WS60's, 80's and my 3rd gen is on WS90's. Love them!
I had a set on my Explorer last winter and was seriously impressed. They actually ended up being just about perfect - more compliant than my 21" Pirellis, but far firmer, quieter, and enjoyable than I could have ever hoped for. Performance in the snow was incredible
I had WS80s on my Mazda 6 for 6 years and they still had lots of tread left when I traded the car in. I had WS90s on my ATS and they were excellent too.
Bought my wife the Toyo open country AT3’s and we love them, give it a look. We have a lot of mud here in South Georgia and it’s worked great
Had both. Now running Toyo Open Country AT3. Best on wet compared to all three. Snow, sand and mud is all about the same.
Had the Conti All Seasons last winter and was not real happy how they performed on ice/snow. Wife was slipping and sliding all over, especially in single digit temps. Took advantage of a Costco Bridgestone deal and got the Blizzak snow tires for about $700 after installation. Haven't had a chance to test them yet in the elements, but the ride is very quiet although a little more floaty/soft. Can't take the corners as fast as you would with the Conti's.
I bought a set of new take off wheels for my Golf. They came with factory fresh Bridgestone Ecopia 422 Plus tires. Anyway, these are the crappiest tires I've had in 30 years of driving as far as on center feel / tracking. Car demands constant attention to go perfectly straight on the highway...always wants to go slightly left or right. Going dead straight is total white knuckle territory.
