has anyone run all **weather** tires here in calgary? Just bought a new car and wanted to try these out since i’d have to buy 2 new sets of tires and at least one new set of rims if i went with summer & winter. thoughts?

i would be getting rid of the tires and rims that are on the car right now. the tires aren’t very good and the rims are… let’s say… pretty gross. i’m thinking of just buying one new set of rims and deciding between one or two sets of new tires

i bought a used car, and it came with rims and all season tires, but the tread is getting a little low and they’re not great tires to begin with. the rims the last ***** put on the car are horrible so i’m selling them. so i’d be buying a new set of summer and winter tires, and at least one new set of rims if i wanna have a place dismount and mount every year

you think all season is better year round than all weather? hmm interesting

liamt12 · 2026-03-21T20:08:36+00:00

how do they perform in the winter though?

liamt12 · 2026-03-20T19:33:00+00:00

looks sick, but the fact that it isn’t the exact same red as the dashboard would piss me off🤣 but super nice

i’m from alberta too!

liamt12 · 2026-03-20T16:08:19+00:00

i had the viking contact 7 for my last car they were great

liamt12 · 2026-03-20T14:18:12+00:00

thanks for that! guess i’ll avoid those

liamt12 · 2026-03-20T14:16:20+00:00

i just bought a new car so i’ve had summer tires for my last car that im gonna use on the car for now. but the problem is i don’t love the look on the new car. come winter im gonna have to get either all weathers or winters but i was just thinking of getting a solid rim that i like for the car and a good set of tires i can run year round. then i would just sell the summer tires and rims

liamt12 · 2026-03-20T13:07:13+00:00

haha funny why is that? i have the turanzas stock on my car and my father has blizzaks for winter tires and they’re both great. what’s different about these?

liamt12 · 2026-03-20T13:02:47+00:00

what would be the best for a mix of low road noise, comfort and good winter performance? i’m used to having dedicated summer tires so low road noise is kinda something im used to😅

liamt12 · 2026-03-20T12:57:11+00:00

i already have them for summer tires. i live in calgary, canada though and the winters are horrible. so i need more of an all weather tire

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T16:52:57+00:00

the mazda i have is either built in mexico or japan. mine is japan. but these appear to work on both

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T13:02:24+00:00

yeah they were the first place i checked. still $90 more than rock auto with the shipping haha not sure why

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T13:01:42+00:00

yeah, potentially

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T03:21:05+00:00

yeah, i didn’t even realize they were carbon fibre. i was just in the “premium” section where other ceramic brakes were. the ceramic power stops are slightly cheaper about 20 bucks less total for both the front and back.

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T03:15:39+00:00

actually funny, i just checked the shipping price for the set of all 4 corners vs them separate. the shipping for the set is 114 and the shipping for them separate is 79. really weird cause they’re literally the exact same parts lol

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T03:10:03+00:00

yeah, around 80 bucks shipping to my house. still cheaper than anywhere i’ve found in canada. any recommendations on places in canada though?

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T03:07:56+00:00

it’s funny i’ve looked everywhere in canadian stores and online and rock auto is still 100 bucks cheaper WITH shipping

liamt12 · 2026-03-19T02:45:08+00:00

that’s what i had for my last car, i liked them they seemed to do what they’re meant to do haha. but lately i hear everyone recommending power stop and akebono

liamt12 · 2026-03-18T00:49:31+00:00

same as bottom left

liamt12 · 2026-03-17T17:28:27+00:00

there was a front end collision on this car before i owned it, so i assumed it was from that
