Tires OEM Mazda or Cooper
I have Motomaster Eliminators (3peak whatever made by Cooper) and they're great for city driving and the odd jaunt out of town. I drive an SUV with 4wd and put in maybe 15000km/year so they don't have much wear and I don't have to worry about swapping tires every year.
30k miles on 2024 mazda3 turbo hatchback. No problems other than replaced tires due to the low profiles hitting potholes.
I miss my shitty NB for the winter. It had a lsd and decent snow tires. Other than super deep snow, that setup was perfect.
Seriously though, if you can't get snow tires, put some weight in the truck. Weight in truck+snow tires makes the Miata a surprisingly nimble snowmobile.
Ive got a cx50, live in Tahoe where it snows plenty, and with all weather tires, this thing is a beast.
I replaced them with cooper road and trail AT tires. They are amazing in all conditions and whisper quiet.
I've had great experience in the snow so far with the Road & Trail and wondering if the Stronghold does similarly for LT sizes
I put Cooper AT3 265/75-16 (Pro-4x size) on, which I like pretty well. I've had ok luck with it driving through Illinois fields when hunting.
Be careful with Coopers. Their QC is abysmal. I just took off a brand new set of Road & Trails, about 600 miles on them. Wouldn’t balance and the thread was coming through the sidewall on one of them.
Do not purchase the Walmart coopers…. I have a set of 285 70 17 and one wheel took 16oz to balance on stock wheels. The other three required 5-7 oz each.
