Tires OEM Mazda or GT Radial
If you’re on a budget get some GT Radials from Amazon for like $65-$80 per tire. They’re Chinese tires but they’re one of the better ones. I think I paid about $400 total for my tires and all services and they’ve been really solid for me.
I got a Mazda 2 with good winter tires , I'm in Calgary. It costs me almost nothing on gas, and I finish the week with way more money in my pocket. in my 40 years of life I've learned a FWD car with decent rubber will handle winter good as any suv.
I commuted 100 miles a day in my CX5 in snowy Maine. I had a 6speed manual transmission and snow tires and never had a problem.
Le ho comprate per la mia compagna. Io non ci ho guidato molto, lei riferisce miglior feeling e affidabilità rispetto alle Nexen che aveva in precedenza
The cheapest tires I would recommend is GT Radial Champiro Eco / Ecotec.
I also swapped the stock tires for A/T tires, mostly for the looks, but they actually helped in sand and rough surfaces.
GT Radial is be the cheapest tires I would consider.
GT Radial is okay naman.
they dont last, had them for 11 months had chord showing at the end.
I drive a 05 wrx and have had both Blizzak WS80 and GT Radial Ice Pro 3 on it. I only got the GT Radials because I was in grad school and they were cheap. They get the job done, but are definitely not as good as blizzies. Obviously haven't done any scientific tests, but the steering feel is noticeably worse on the radials, stopping distance is much longer, acceleration worse. Frequently notice them understeering significantly on both wet and snowy roads.
