Tires Toyo or Firestone

I recommend Continental winter contact, General altimax arctic 12 or Toyo observe gsi-6. Top 3 winter tires in my opinion for reliability, tread wear, noise and cost.

I’ve had good luck with toyo, not so much with Goodyear

Bought my wife the Toyo open country AT3’s and we love them, give it a look. We have a lot of mud here in South Georgia and it’s worked great

Had both. Now running Toyo Open Country AT3. Best on wet compared to all three. Snow, sand and mud is all about the same.

The Firehawk Indy 500 tires aren't perfect but they hold up well on a track known for eating tires. Additionally they are predictable in wet/dry conditions which is perhaps more important for learning.

I've had my new CX-5 Signature for 2 weeks. When I drove it home, and then for the next day or so, the ride was very rough. It wasn't what I thought I'd bought. I then checked tire pressures - all were at 50 psi. Evidently either the prep guys filled them that high, or they didn't reduce them to the sticker-recommended 35 psi. After setting them at the recommended pressure, the ride is great.

If you don't need run flats, get Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s. Rebadged Bridgestone tires that are stickier than most Michelin tires, and cheaper too

I also really like Winterforce tires. again far less expensive but great tread and can be studded if you want.

I had my factory Firestone’s taken off at 35k and they probably still had another 5-10k mikes left in them.

Not the same vehicle, but, on my truck (2wd, V8, manual), I installed Winterforce 2 tires, and while I haven't driven in any snow with them yet, on wet or dry pavement, they are horrible. Not much traction at all, even if I try to drive "carefully."
