For reference, I have some Pirelli tires on mine. I bought them new in May of this year, and I just had rotations done a few days ago. I’m at 8/32 thread, and they start recommending you to replace them when they get to 4/32.
I have Yokohama's V701s and they're great also. Super predictable at the limit and superb in the rain.
Pirelli Scorpion AS3. They’re so quiet.
Today I had a 600 km trip in -6*C, half of the way I used chill mode, tried to keep constant speed 100 km/h (winter tires Sottozero 3, 18\u201d without aero) and I got 175Wh/km. After charging I switched to Normal and continued my trip: average consumption kept floating near 178, I switched to Chill and saw how it slowly decreased to 169Wh/km.
We replaced the OEM Bridgestone with Pirelli Scorpion A/S 3. They are very quiet and smooth riding. I can highly recommend them.
the two tires people keep circling back to are Michelin Defender 2 (for max longevity + quiet ride) and Pirelli Scorpion WeatherActive (for folks who want legit wet/snow grip without going full winter tire). Both feel noticeably better than the OEM rubber Mazda ships these with less thump over expansion joints and far more planted in rain.
Actually enjoying the comfy sottozero 3s in traffic coming off my ecs02s but can definitely feel the wintertireyness and lack of traction and turn-in
In my experience, Yokohamas last the least amount of time. Had a set of 205 advan fleva v701’s on a Suzuki swift sport and it was glued, for a brief period.
Originally came with new car 20k mile Perelli’s so I had to put new tires on fairly early
We are on the original launch edition pirellis on our R1S (20” wheels) and I can’t stand the noise either.
