Tires OEM Mazda or BFGoodrich

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.

Ive got a cx50, live in Tahoe where it snows plenty, and with all weather tires, this thing is a beast.

I like BF Goodrich T/A KSI they are less expensive than Michelin XIce. They have good performance and seem fairly durable

I got a Mazda 2 with good winter tires , I'm in Calgary. It costs me almost nothing on gas, and I finish the week with way more money in my pocket. in my 40 years of life I've learned a FWD car with decent rubber will handle winter good as any suv.

I commuted 100 miles a day in my CX5 in snowy Maine. I had a 6speed manual transmission and snow tires and never had a problem.

This is simply my perspective. I’ve had KM3, 3 different times. They are soft, they are more round than squared and performed well but I chunked them a lot using them to climb. One set I had new suspension and forgot to realign after it settled and did a little towing. I cupped all 4 wheels in 1500 miles.

My take after several sets of KO2 and the competition. KO2s look good and are very durable for off-road work. Excellent puncture resistance and tough sidewalls. For on-road they start fairly quiet but tend to get noisy after wearing. They flat-out suck in the rain, marginal at best in snow/ice, and tend to push in corners (poor lateral traction).

Am incercat BF Goodrich, dar au fost 2 situatii in care am riscat mult cu aceste pneuri.

Hopefully they're not as terrible as the KO2's on road
