Tires Hankook or BRIDGESTONE

I got some cheaper wheels from tire rack that are “winter rated” 18x8.5 +35 squared setup and Blizzaks. It will be worth the investment.

I noticed the wiper issue on mine in February when I first got the truck. It's pretty annoying. You can get around it like others mentioned but I've heard some users report they've chipped the hood paint doing it so I don't' bother.

I'm also in NS by the way as I see you mentioned that in the comments. Those the stock tires you still running? I ordered steelies and Bridgestone Blizzaks for mine a few weeks ago. Just under $1,400 which isn't cheap but they are great tires in the snow and ice. Handled the snow like a champ today. I also have the same vent shades. They are amazing.

Bridgestone last absolutely ages and are brilliant in the wet, it’s what I have on my merc

I replaced the tires on my Dual Motor model last month at 21,000 miles with Hankook Ion hT tires, which offer an 80,000-mile tread warranty

I just got some Bridgestone DESTINATION LE3. They’re holding up really well so far, a lot better than my stock tires.

On my old M3, I used Bridgestone quiettracks .- they had an 80,000 mile warranty, and I only paid full price once:-).

The previous owner put RE-71s on it. That’s an amazing autocross and track tire but it is not great in the rain. I’ve never driven a Miata on REs in the rain but I have driven other cars on them and it was dicey to say the least, that car had ABS and traction control and I was still limited in the highway.

The Bridgestone RE71RS is a 200tw performance tire. They will wear quickly - meaning you might get 10k miles out of them (give or take).

the stock Turanzas (summer) are so crappy that the soft winter tires feel a lot more controlled and don’t steer by themselves like the Turanzas do.

Just before the weekend one of my summer tires punctured. Replaced all four wheels with winter tires, but a closer look at these *two year old tires* has me wondering: How come these Bridgestones are already so worn down?
