Tires Falken or Vredestein
Got some for the SQ5. Great performance in the snow, while still pretty good on dry pavement. A bit prone to aqua planning on heavy rain days. I do find them a bit noisy on dry pavement after a couple seasons though, but that could be a snow tire thing.
I got my spyder a set of hypergrams a couple years ago...They look great, come in a ton of spyder friendly sizes...Falken azenis rt615k+ are a great performance oriented tire, lots of grip.
I have them on my SQ5. Agree with all the other comments, they’re excellent winter tires.
I’ve got those on my Miata. They’re insanely good, feels great on dry pavement unlike a lot of snow tires, and still performs well in the snow.
Best Winter tire I've had for sure. It's the perfect tire if snow isnt consistant but the cold temps are. Performs wonderfully on pavement while still maintaining excellent snow performance.
A set of Vredestein Wintrac Pro+ will run you just $670 on the Rack.
Definitely buy atleast an all terrain tires(falken recommended if you have the budget) for your driving habits.
I just went through the same thing and ended up picking the wildpeaks. In my size i could only get E rated KO3s, and didnt want to go that heavy. I havent gotten out yet so cant speak to that, but on the road they dont feel much different to the OEM trailhunter tires. I actually think maybe a little worse in wet, but not to the point of being an issue (and its been pretty wet where im at)
Idk how Mazda still puts Falkens. Aside from the puncture being something that any tire would be affected by, on my 6 the Falkens were genuinely some of the shittiest things I’ve ever had. Wore so fast.
Faulkens are hot garbage. Had them on our subaru ascent and also on our cx90. On our ascent they lasted 22,000 lol
