Tires Toyo or VITOUR
Vitour P1 for a long lasting 200tw that's only a hair behind the Hoosier. They also handle heat well, and come in some creative sizes
I have about a year on mine and to me they feel ultra quiet after driving around on the stock Toyos for the first 30k miles… and the ride is really smooth and responsive in hard rain (SoCal)
I have them on my CX-5 and I love them, much better ride than the shitty Toyos -- but they are definitely a bit louder.
They are a touch louder than the stock toyos on my cx5 but the performance easily makes it worth it to me
I have the toyo observe GSI-6 on my fwd car. And their great in the snow. Very good stopping distance on snow and very predictable handling. Makes it fun driving on snowy roads again.
Toyos were my favorite tire on my 350z
Had a set of Proxes Sport a few years ago. Overall they’re really good tires. Smooth, responsive, predictable at the limit, and pretty quiet too.
Toyo gives then a 2.5 / 5 rating in the snow.
The R888Rs are a terrible autocross tire, slower than the Super 200s and actually illegal for most street classes. If you are running in a class that allows R-comps, Hoosier A7s will be legal and are in another universe than the R888Rs in terms of grip.
At 30k they became useless when below freezing. Switched to Toyo Open Country and they've been great
