Tires Toyo or Sailun
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 did some track days with Sailun Atrezzo R01 on my first gen BRZ this year. They're 180 AA A, but only cost me 130$ CAD per tire. They hold up to the heat and don't chunk but they're a little loud on the street.
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.
I just picked up a set a few weeks ago, took them to Moab on some dry trails. Performed well, even at 35 psi. Went and did some snow traveling, felt fine, especially braking. Went into some packed snow on the road at 45-50 mph and hit the brakes hard to see how much force they could handle before abs kicked on, abs only kicked on cause of no weight in the bed of my truck, never felt loss of braking traction or control. Went over a few passes passing people in the passing lane that was covered in snow and Was able to do it in 2wd, only time I needed to use 4x4 was when I had to stop on a section of straight ice, when on a slight uphill, once in 4wd, had no issues on the section ice. Then when I got the the trail head there was a guy next to me stuck in his ford f250 in 4x4 with a name brand set of a/t tires. I continued down the trail in 2wd. So far I’m happy, only complaint is the amount of sidewall flex I feel when going around corners.
Toyo’s hands down best tire out there for regular driving in dry, snow and rain and medium off roading tasks. Quiet and well mannered
Sailun is a legit tire manufacturer. You get what you pay, but should be safe for normal operation. I changed from Michelin PS4S (worn out at 29k mile) to Sailun, clearly feel handling is worse above 80 mph.
R888Rs don't deserve being called a track tire in my opinion. Decent for the street guys who make power and don't want to replace tires every 2 months, but they can't touch most modern 200TWs. Not to mention they grease up super fast and will fall off halfway through a 20 minute HPDE session.
