Tires OEM Mazda or Kumho
For your size 185/55R16, the best “cheap but not garbage” all-season I’ve found is the Kumho Solus TA31 they’re reliable in winter slush, quiet, and usually one of the lowest prices without feeling unsafe.
On my old Pontiac Grand Am I ran Kumho All weathers and if their speed rating worked on my new 300 I'd run them on it too. Great tires with great grip unless you hit a wet iced spot but nearly all tires fail on that.
30k miles on 2024 mazda3 turbo hatchback. No problems other than replaced tires due to the low profiles hitting potholes.
Incredibly lucky. Send those to Kumho, they would happily use these photos.
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.
Am acum Kumho Solus HA32+, puse vara asta. Sunt decente pentru anvelope medii.
Mid tiers. Pas tout a fait au niveau des meilleurs, mais pas mauvais non plus. Pas pour moi, je suis trop exigent, mais si tu veux pas mettre plus, c'est pas honteux.
Kumhos suck!
The OEM tires are junk. I had the kumho 7's, replaced them by 25k and they weren't great even when new.
