Best Tires for Mazda 6

I recently put the Bridgestones on my Mazda6 and they feel great in cold and wet weather, quite good in snow for all seasons too, but I haven’t had a chance to try them in proper European summer heat. My previous car had cc2 that were excellent in the snow, average on wet, and quite bad for my liking on summer drives. They just felt soft and flexi above 30c.

Bought mine this summer, they are AMAZING! Just yesterday I was driving in snowfall when the roads weren't great, I've had almost zero issues with them.

We run Michelin rubber, period.

I got Sumitomo HTR A/S P03 tires put on my car last October. I live in Wisconsin and am frequently in NW Wisconsin/MN/SD. They were great for me last winter and are pretty quiet during the summer and solid in the rain. I’ve put over 25k miles on them in a year and still no complaints and limited wear. They were a middle-lower cost option when I bought them on Tire Rack and installed for free at Discount Tire. I’ll probably buy them again. I’ve heard they’re a little soft and wear fast though? That’s not been my experience yet but just what I’ve read.

BRAND NEW Yokohama AdvanSport+ A/S tires (Yokohama’s equivalent to Michelin’s Pilot Sport 4 A/S) with less than 600 miles on the tires - no real maintenance (outside of oil changes & tire rotations) needed on this bad boy until at least reaching 105k miles!!

I had the Firehawk Indy 500 from Firestone on, and they we're great. Lot's of grip going around corners and still felt very secure during heavy rain. I paid around 900 for a set of four on my 18 inch wheels.

Ever since I started using the ExtremeContact DWS years ago on my ‘08 Mazda6, I’ve never gone back except for the stock tires that came on my ‘15. I really liked them when I had to deal with snow.

Have the gy exhilarates, been good, but now discontinued, only had to replace 1 because of sidewall bubble.

Yes. I have the same tires on my 2020 Mazda 6 turbo. They are ok for mpg, but not great for bad weather or high torque fwd.

As others have said, bulging is a sign that the internal structure of the tyre has failed. As frustrating as this is, it's new tyre time.
