Kenda happy medium is nice in 2.3. Fast rolling, not too heavy or expensive.
I’ve never used them on a Miata, but I’ve gone through two sets on my Jetta GLI and another set on a big-turbo Audi A4. I think they’re fantastic for the price. Perfect balance of grip and longevity. They’re not the greatest in heavy rain or standing water but they’ll do the job if you take it easy. Obviously not something you’ll want to run in the snow although I did this year due to laziness (couldn’t make it up my driveway). I wouldn’t hesitate to buy another set.
Went from Cooper Discoverer 17 inch to 20 inch Nitto 420S. It's day and night. I literally have a track truck now. The truck is already dropped so it handles like a little sport car now.
They're much quieter than the first round of tires I had on the car (Nitto NT421Q), and probably about as good as it gets in snow without going to actual snow tires.
nitto nt05. on my second set. best tire i’ve ever used for sure
Summer Tires I have found that Nitto NT555 G2 tires perform just as good as any of the tires you mentioned at half the cost.
I have 315/35/20 NT05 on the rear of my challenger 392 widebody, and it's been raining a ton in California lately. Surprisingly, they have been totally fine in the rain.
In run kenda K35 tires (but not gumwall) and they are ok budget tires. They work well but are not especially light, grippy or puncture-resistant.
Wrote my car off into an enbankment on NT05's in the rain while driving normally.
Kenda is shit when you skid regurarly. I had one and I could see the yellow rope all around the tire after 2 days.
