Tires BRIDGESTONE or Maxxis
I put a set of 4 weatherpeaks on our FWD Mazda 3 and I have been very pleased. Quiet, smooth, surprising good in the snow (especially for fwd). And great in dry and rain so far too. Would absolutely buy again.
I just got a set of CrossClimate 2, it feels like an upgrade from oem bridgestone run flats. Pretty comfy.
I got rid of the run flats on my '14 R60. I put 1 size larger Bridgestone Potenza's on it to help with road vibration. The first set lasted just over 60k miles and I ordered my second set about 5 months ago
Winter tires did great for our first major snowfall. Bridgestone Blizzak WS90.
Best all-round trail / enduro tires imho: Maxxis Minion DHF (front) and Minion DHR II (rear). I run 2.5 and 2.4, respectively. Get the WT (wide trail) variant if your rim inner width is 20+mm. Dual compound good for durability. The DHF has great breaking and turning control and last me 100+ hrs. The rear is great for techie climbs.
I've ran a lot of tire brands and always have the best performance from Maxxis.
Once I got some Maxxis suited to my riding style/terrain it felt like a whole new bike!
I just got a set of the new RE71RS and they were great for the one day I ran them. My times were on par with a set of old maxxis rc1 slicks.
They run a bit narrow but I haven’t measured
My BridgestonePotenza S001 has 12k miles with 6/32 of tread depth. Likely, they grip marginally better than new but I don't have high expectations from this tire anymore. Nevertheless, I did expect a transformation from wider summer tire, coming from horrendous BridgestoneECOPIA EP422 PLUS .
