Winter wheel set up

Hi all, I live in Jersey and have to deal with snow/ice during the winters. Was wondering what tires people tend to use which help with tough road conditions?

What year is your car and do you already have a size in mind?
I've had very good luck with Firestone Winterforce tires in the past.
There's always other choices like the Bridgestone Blizzak, the MasterCraft Glacier Trex, the General Altimax Arctic, and others.

I live in NJ as well in the southern part of the state and I just stick to the tires that came with my 2019 GT. For the small and in frequent amount of snow we get down here I've never bothered to get a set of winter shoes.

I have a set of Blizzaks that have gotten me through two Canadian winters, and just started on their third snow season.

I really enjoy my general altimax Arctic. I also had these on a focus and loved them on that as well. I previously had some Nokian winters on my 2014 mustang, they were nice but not any better than the generals... But probably $350 more.
