Tires OEM Mazda or Cooper
CO driver, have about 500mi on a set of Cooper Road and Trails, very happy so far
As someone who was a parts manager at a dealership and worked with these tires. The Pro control would be your best option. Second would be the Endevors. These two are good for warm weather and wet driving, If you live where it snows they would be ok for Light snow ( packed snow and ice they wont work).
It's a great tire I had a set on my 1971 camaro no issues at all
I bought 4 new Cooper tires and 1 of them developed a defect 6 months and 2/32 of use. Cooper tire stood behind their tire and gave me a free replacement and reimbursed me for mounting and balancing. I've purchased Cooper tires in the past and will continue to do so. They're a great AMERICAN manufacturer.
I have 15k miles on mine and love them so far. They have a 65k mile warranty
I have a pair of Cooper Discoverer tires on my Nissan. They are really quiet on the highway and very good on non-paved terrain like gravel and mud. Can’t speak for snow, don’t get a whole lot in my area. They are super tough too. I’ve screamed the side wall and nothing happened. I’ve had a nail go into the tread sideways and it didn’t puncture the tire. The only thing I will say is they pick up small debris like rocks if you spend a lot of time off road. But I would highly recommend them.
I just got myself a set of Cooper discoverer stronghold ATs 275/60/20. They were just released and according to my tire guy they are to compete with the falken wildpeaks. Got a really good price on them compared to the falkens and so far I have nothing but good things to say. If I remember correctly they are quite a bit lighter than other comparable tires. My mileage didn’t budge switching from 31.9” tires to 33”.
I personally like the Cooper AT3 XLT. Aggressive tread but quiet and very stable on pavement. Great wet traction.
Of those three, I'd go with Coopers
I club race an NA Miata and I'm $40k in before you count recurring costs like tires, fuel, entry fees, etc. Its an expensive sport!
