Winter tire shopping Bridgestone or Continental for 13 GT

[JonsMustang]

Bridgestone Blizzaks WS-90 or Continental Viking Contact 7

Gearing towards Viking since it's on cheaper side with good reviews.

​​​​​​​Thoughts?

My vote goes to the Continentals as well.

Neither and by a huge margin.
Haka's if the budget will allow.

If your on a tight budget, Sailun are extremely capable n priced very right.

General Altimax Arctic 12 is good value too. General is owned by Continental, and this tire is one from their European Gislaved subsidiary that is relabelled as a General for the North American market. Great performer, especially for the price.

I'm with ED ^^ had Altimax last 2 sets of snows , no issue's what so ever, my only observation is they maybe a little noisey on the HWY ??

I ran Gislaved's on my 07 GT for 7 winters and have them now for my Jetta and no issues there at all to be honest. I was only following what the OP was asking between the two tires. But Agreed on all parts that there are a lot of tires better valued and more capable than the two that he listed.

I run Blizzaks on one of my cars and find them marginally better than the inexpensive China snows I run on the others.

I got them cheap through family but wouldn't pay full pop for them.

Looks like ALTIMAX ARCTIC 12 only goes up to 18in

I have 19's and running brembo's.

You can fit 18s with the Brembos. Drag Wheels have a few wheels that fit. Did some research for 18s with Brembos as I want to put Brembos on my 14 V6 but didn’t want to keep the 19” Brembo wheels for the winter.
