Tires YOKOHAMA or BRIDGESTONE
Whoever said blizzak are terrible in the snow is a lunatic I have to TRY and get the traction control to come on, and cane take corners covered in ice at 40-50mph and the car doesn’t even wiggle…now my preference is Michelin Alpin Pa4 but I had these in my garage from a couple years ago…I bought them then 2 weeks later the wheel got a crack, so I got the Alpin on the 19” wheels and did that the last 3 winters, now the wheel is fixed and the basically new blizzaks are great just got back from 5 inches of snow and ice I’m driving the speed limit everybody else has their hazards on and/or crashing into curbs.
I highly recommend Bridgestone Blizzaks. I put those on my stock steelies and bought a nicer set of aftermarket wheels with all season tires for Spring through Fall.
I put G015's on my 2021 premium around January and they did not lose traction a single time through last winter in Upstate NY. Took them through the Adirondacks with ≈8" of snow on forest roads to get to a ski mtn. Great upgrade imo over the stock G91F's
We got Bridgestone Weatherpeaks instead. Not a full snow tire like the Blizzaks, but good snow performance for an all seasons set of tires.
Yokohama geolander G015 is a great tire
Yokohama the best for XC90. Michelin great as always but Yoko wears well, soft, quiet, and comfortable. Grips well too.
I’ve had these tires for almost 7 years in FL on my Toyota Camry. I’m really only considering new tires because I moved to the cold. They’ve made it to about 60k miles in those 7 years and even drove me across the country.
Just get Blizzaks, by far the best bang for your buck winter tire, they will need to be swapped for your regular tires every year, but they are awesome in anything this state will throw at you. I have used them for years through several iterations on multiple vehicles.
They are fine, feel rather soft.
I had them on an Audi A4 one winter, it snowed a decent amount that year but there were plenty of non-precipitation days and they were OK (a little noisy) on highway and city.
Bridgestone have been terrible for me.
