Post your Winter wheel/tire setup

[GenSan]

I'll start with 18" Enkei RPF1's with Michelin XIce Snow. Purchased through Tire Rack.

Wanted to add the convenient setting to relearn TPMS with different wheels on the 2024 Toyota Rav4 Prime rocks. Just push a button on dash menu and drive around. 5 mins later it's programmed.

Let's stay safe this Winter

I have a set of Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 that are mounted on a set of Subaru OEM 16" wheels, that came off a 2003? Baja, for my wife's Outback. They have their own TPMS sensors, but the Outback doesn't handle mating TPMS sensors as nice as your Rav4, so I have to make a quick trip to the tire shop after rotating the winter wheels on.

I haven't got around to getting a set of winter wheels/tires for the E350, but since we are retired, it works out to have only one car that is a snow beast.

Michelin xice snow on cheap DTD vision? wheels.
They are a half size small.. 215/65r17 vs 225/65r17 but close enough considering the mint condition and 0 outlay of $$$

The 2020 elantra has conti viking contact 7's on more cheap alloys.

Replacing the 9 year old Michelin all season radials on our Honda Accord with 4 Michelin CrossClimate2 215/50R17 95V. Waiting for them to arrive.

Stripped and repainted the original alloy wheels too. They look very nice.

We have very little winter here but require "snow tires" to get very far inland or up island. These have a snowflake on the sidewall and qualify as snow tires. Acceptable summer performance too apparently.

CC2 are great tires, I have had them for 3 years and are fine in all kinds of winter conditions and run well in summer driving. I run about 10-15% pressure over door specs and they are about as quiet as the prevous OE all season tires I had (Nexen)

CC2 are really nice tires. Have had for 3 years and really like them.

Sumitomo Encounter AT - LT 265 70 R17 All Weather with the mountain snowflake with a 1/2 inch deep tread. They’ll be staying on next summer.

I’m using cross climate 2 on our 18 rogue and continental lx25s during the summer. Same midnight rims. I initially had the Michelins installed and went this route to get some use out of the Michelins to justify what I paid and fully regret. I know some folks like them but I’m not a fan. Killed fuel mileage, ride rough and aren’t exactly quiet. This car had primacy’s and the cc2s were a huge downgrade in comfort. The lx 25s are very close to what the primacy’s were.

Between the Viking Contact 7 and the Xice , which do you like better?

 

[Lubener]

I was going to install my snows (235/75/15) on my F150. While painting the steel rims, I discovered a bulge on the tread's edge on one. Very disapointing. Unless I can find a good used pair of snows, they will go back into the shed and I will run my current Hankook all seasons.

I like my cc2, run 15% more pressure and gas mileage is fine

Really different vehicles but if I had to choose one I would give a very slight nod to the the Continentals.
Although the new version of the Continental, the Viking contact 8 is busy in the tread pattern with not much tread voids so not sure how that's going to perform on certain types of winter conditions. Such as slush planing.

 

[RaymondP]

Waiting for temperatures to dip, as still upper 40's and above. When it drops will be installing Falken EuroWinter 439. Been good on previous car, a Porsche Boxster S, and now a rear drive manual BMW 328i. After a couple of winters showing little wear. Gives up a bit on cornering, but the ride is nice and much softer than the harder compound OE summer tires, although admittedly these are excellent in all summer conditions.

Enkie alloys with Vredstein snows. Should have bought Michelins are 1 of the snow tires had a sidewall leak. You get what you pay for.
