Firestone Winterforce for the snowy months, they seem pretty good but are a bit noisy. Summers are Sumitomo HTR Ziii, no complaints with them.

Haha can't believe that trick still gets people...

How do you find the road noise with your Toyo's. Had a set of 17" toyo proxes on my tib and will probably never buy another set because of the noise.

At the moment I'm running Micheline X-Ice. Will need some rubber for my 18"'s this spring so debating on Micheline or Fierce instinct.

the toyo's are amazing.................LY LOUD. Lmao I don't mind, because they are only on during the cold months. I like my Falkens in the summer, not sure if they have a lot of road noise or I just became accustomed to it.

heh....wasn't expecting responses about tyres being used.
The vid is from a Japanese tyre distributor ( like the Tire Rack) and the concept was are your tyres good enough for any conditions.
fyi nearly lost the contents of my coffee cup on me first viewing

The RX-7 runs Falken Azenis RT-615k's (255/40/17) on all four corners.

The Speed3 has Goodyear something something GT's in the stock size in the summer and I have no idea what brand my winter tires are as they came on rims as part of the deal when I bought the car... I only checked the tread depth to make sure they were worth using.
