Tires OEM Mazda or Achilles
I had gotten some Achilles Desert Hawk UHP tires, they were really good for the price and held up a good while.
Pros: good for the price
If you’re looking for a good budget tire, have a look at the Achilles atr sport 2 tires. Got a set last summer and they grip awesome.
Pros: grip awesome
I had the ATR Sport 2 on my Mazda 6 and they had excellent grip for an inexpensive tire. Good in the rain.
Pros: excellent grip, good in rain
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
Mileage: 10000 km
I really like my 195/55R15 Achilles ATR Sports. They wear relatively quickly (within 30k-40k miles), but man they're great tires for the money. I've never had an issue with them in the rain either.
Pros: great tires for money
Cons: wear relatively quickly
I'm running 235/45/17 on my car and I had to get 5mm spacers up front to clear the coilovers. Car is on stock 04 GLI wheels now.
Pros: clear the coilovers
Cons: needed 5mm spacers
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I'm running the achilles atr sport 2s. These are a cheap tire and won't compare to a michelin or conti but they're pretty good for the price. I have about 30k miles on them, they got me through utah mountain winters, and I've been running -2.5 degrees of camber all around. So for the money they did their job.
Pros: good for the price
Mileage: 48280 km
I run the ATR sport on my 2018 6 GT, only issue i had was it made the car feel like it had a lot of body roll, I think the ATR tires have more grip then the stock suv Falcons that came stock.
Pros: more grip
Cons: lot of body roll
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
They lasted 18,000 miles on my 2015 Mazda 6 before I was down to the wires. I mean for the price you get a ..... tire. They are not horrible tires that will be unsafe or that will handle horribly, but they are budget tires that won’t last long and that are loud specially with age.
Pros: ok for the price
Cons: loud, won’t last long
Vehicle:
Mazda 6
Mileage: 18000 km
I ran Achilles tires on my old VW and so did my buddy, this was 10ish years ago but they were terrible back then.
Cons: terrible
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
They suck lol. They are loud, they hyrdoplane like a motherfucker, grooved pavement like overpasses makes them do this weird shimmy thing, and they wear quick. They cause the ABS to kick on super early, and lose traction fast.
Cons: loud, wear quick
