Here's another product that's back again this year. Toyo's Observe GSi-6 remains a highly recommendable choice for cars, SUVs and minivans. What's more, this tire is readily available across Canada.

Yokohama's IG53 is another tire that’s been around for a while, but it’s one that's still relevant today. We have often tested it on press vehicles and, except in a few special situations, it has always proved quiet. And it is always effective.

It's with a caveat that we include the Vredestein brand in this list of top-of-the-range tires. The Dutch brand is making a comeback on our market, and we weren't able to try it out. However, it's a serious and reliable brand. What's more, the Wintrac Pro has been on the U.S. market for some time, and comments from American reviewers have been rather complimentary.
