Best all weather tire for Tahoe coming up
Best all weather tire for Tahoe coming up
Pretty much what the title says. I was rocking Toyo proxes 4 and they did not last very long. Thinking of giving Bridgestone RE970 AS or RE960 AS. Anyone have experience with either? Also, has anyone tried the new Toyo Proxes 4+ ??? Thanks!!!!

Ive heard great reviews about the DWS I only had the DW though :/ Never in the snow really.
Got these on my car as well. Taken these tires through the snow a multitude of times. Only had an issue once, but it was puking snow that night. I love these tires and they will hold up through some spirited driving during the summer months as well. I have about 23k on my tires so far and they are going strong with a lot of tread life left.
When I was looking to get some snow type tires, the Blizzaks were the highest recommended ones. I would like to get a set of those some days, but at the time, it just wasn't plausible for me to have 2 sets of wheels (well, still isn't).
All season tires on the wrx/sti kills the driving experience for me. If you're going to Tahoe multiple times I'd recommend a second set of rims with snow tires.
My 2 cents.
