Default What tires are you running on your Mazda6?

I need to replace mine, and was thinking of the Toyo T1R's

What is everyone else running? I'm looking for something fairly agressive for summer only.

Thanks!

I'm running Bridgestone S03's they're pretty decent, could use a bit more stiffness in the sidewalls, but they are awesome in the rain, and pretty good grip overall

Still on the stock ones, but I was thinking Toyo's as well. I've heard good things about them.

I'm using Eagle F1's not really a fan, they are really noisy, and the grip isn't what I expected

Toyo T1R... was there a sale on these or something?

Little soft on the side wall, but great grip, and they wear pretty good too

I hate compromising, I figure for the small cost, a set of snow and performance summer tires are the best of both worlds.

I'm still on my OEM tires, they're pretty good most of the time, but as they're wearing I notice it's getting a little crazy in the rain.

ya Jim, doing a few HPDE's, so I figured why burn through my street tries. Nothing wrong with a little more grip. Maybe a little over kill, I also figured I might use them on the street a little bit as well, which is why I didn't get them shaved. It's easier to put the tires on or leave them on and just head to the track then getting there and rushing around swapping tires, etc.

We'll see how it goes.
