Hello everyone. My work car will be due for new tires soon. Its a 2018 Chevrolet Equinox LS with AWD. Current tires are the OEM Bridgestone Ecopia H/L 422 Plus in 225/65R17 102H. I have gone through two winters (live and work in ND) with these tires and can say without a doubt, this is the worst winter handling vehicle I have ever driven. I have lived in ND all my life and have quite a few winters under my belt. Needless to say, I won't be replacing with the same tires. Hoping a better set of tires will solve the winter traction issues. Winter only tires are not an option as I doubt my employer would cover two sets. Car is highway only (don't offroad) and I don't tow. Don't really have a budget since my employer will cover. Willing to put traction over wear and noise.
Here are a few I have been looking at:
- Continental CrossTrack LX25
- Firestone WeatherGrip
- Michelin CrossClimate SUV
- BFG Advantage TA Sport LT
- Bridgestone Turanza Quietrack
Any feedback or other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
