I did replace with wildpeaks on my Crosstrek and I have to say they're 10/10, would buy again. No additional road noise, handles well on the road, and significantly better performance off the pavement.
2 year later update: finally decided to get new shocks, kyb this time. What a world of difference. No bounce and am using the same bump stops as before.
I've had my Hakka 7s on my Mazda3 since 2014 (so going on 7 winters now). They're showing their age but not their wear. Mine are studded (as all 7s are) and I love the fact that they offer exceptional performance on snow and on ice.
My Mazda3's all have had Blizzak WS60's, 80's and my 3rd gen is on WS90's. Love them!
While others swear by Michelin and Continental, I've got Pirellis on my 2019 Sport GT. My rationale is that if Pirelli is good enough for F1, it's good enough for me. I also bought my winter rims and tires when I bought my vehicle, and Pirelli is what the dealer suggested.
Never cheap out on tires. I just ordered Pilot Aplin Pa4's on the stock size for my turbo they were $266 i believe on PMCtire.com (which I find to be the best online tire shop here in Canada. Free shipping!). You get what you pay for generally for tires.
I use Madza OEM filter with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 0W-20 every 8,000 km to 10,000 km.
I personally like the Pennzoil over the Idemitsu high moly oil but it's mostly due to being more available in my area.
I do think the Pennzoil is slightly better fuel economy wise and comes out cleaner than the high moly but this is probably a placebo than anything.
I honestly can't complain about the bosch icons on my gen 3. They dont streak after 7+ months, though the outer edge on the drivers side wiper kind of chatters across the windshield for some reason
I put OEM Brakes on my ‘19 3 GT AWD. I’m 20K KM into them, and they pulse like mad when I brake above 90KM/h. Absolute fucking trash. The factory brakes also did this, above 90KM, but started around 50K into their life.
Had them on a Mazda3. Developed pulsation within 3 months.
