Default Winter Tire Ranking

How would you rank brands? Does it really make a difference between. This would be for an is350 f sport RWD. We have plenty people on the forum asking similar questions just wanted to know your rankings?


I founds this online.

I was told from 2 people at Tire Rack when I purchased that the WS-80's were very good and that is what they recommended. My research that I did on them told me the same.

If you are looking at winter performance tires, I have had excellent experience with the Michelin PA4s. Excellent on dry/wet pavement and above average snow traction.

If you want the best snow/ice traction, Xi3 and WS80 are both good choices that I've had on crossovers.
