Sailun Terramax AT2, or Falken Rubitrek AT01, only tires i will run on mine. The falkens are amazing on fuel economy and noise, Sailuns are cheaper and only slightly nosier, still good fuel economy.
My AWD gen5 Prius is surprisingly capable in the ice and snow with the stock all season tires. I live in northern Indiana and just drove home through a blizzard last week. Was able to cruise comfortably at 40mph in pretty much the worst conditions.
Goodyear wranglers. Good tread and not too loud or rough on the road, and they weren't too expensive when I got them 5 years ago.
I got some cheaper wheels from tire rack that are “winter rated” 18x8.5 +35 squared setup and Blizzaks. It will be worth the investment.
Goodyear Assurance MaxLife - 225/55R19 99V Tire from Sams Club. $800 installed ($100 off). In NYS 60 miles north of NYC.
On my second RAV4 hybrid, both have performed adequately with winter tires with a few inches of snow on un-plowed roads in New England. The winter tires are the key however as others have said.
i just went from 235/55 Wildpeaks (my 3-season tires) on the stock 17x8-inch rims to 215/60 Nokian R5's on 17x6.5 rims for winter on a lifted VB. My weight per corner went from 54/lbs to 41lbs.
I just tried it and the steering feels lighter; it tracks better on the highway; and it's quieter.
The previous owner put RE-71s on it. That’s an amazing autocross and track tire but it is not great in the rain. I’ve never driven a Miata on REs in the rain but I have driven other cars on them and it was dicey to say the least, that car had ABS and traction control and I was still limited in the highway.
these things are junk. When it’s cool outside they shake. I’m currently 2k miles in and the comfort and everything else is abysmal for a 60k car.
Not only will they not hold up, they suck in every category otherwise...sound,traction,comfort.
