I have a set of 265/30/R18 Bridgestone RE71Rs I autocross them and daily drove them for a while. But pricey but worth it for performance. I've heard people refer to these as one step down from slicks
I agree, very quiet compared to my Bridgestone Ecopia 422 plus H, better traction wet and dry...better handling too. Expansion joint crossings are quieter than my Bridgestones as well.
I got these BFG Sport Comp 2 summer tires 235/45R17, factory equivalent size for 17" wheels. They are a tad beefy for a summer set but the roads in PA are atrocious and, frankly, I don’t like the really low profile or stretched look. Even at this size, just slightly tall for a performance setup, these tires absolutely kill it for their price.

I like bf Goodrich g1 for that
Get some Blizzak's from Costco while they are on sale. They have been a huge upgrade on my Mazda.
I've been running Blizzaks for a few years now. Love them.
I am about to swap over to the Bridgestone Blizzak WS80s I bought last season. Very pleased with the wear and performance. My only complaint is that they are a little loud in wet weather. I ran General Altimax Arctic for six seasons and that was a great tire. Bang for the buck was superb.
FWIW I am also in Oregon and have found the the Indy 500s inferior to the OEM Bridgestones in the dry, but better in most other respects.
Definitely a great wet tire - though my wheel hop is back despite the RMM. On a very wet onramp (99E SB to 224... aww yeah) I was able to hold a 4 wheel drift, pretty cool for a FWD car. But the turn-in still feels a little too..... normal.
Skip the Bridgestone Ecopias. Life span on a LEAF is 20-30k miles. Terrible grip too.
