What are Some of the Best MAZDA3 All-Season Tires?

Tuesday, February 21, 2012 by Steve Huffman

Is it time to put some "Zoom-Zoom" back into your MAZDA3? Installing a new set of tires can certainly help. The MAZDA3 has been an extremely popular compact car that gets great gas mileage to go along with good looks. With so many MAZDA3s on the road the past few years, many are bound to need new tires. If this sounds like you, take a look at a few suggestions for good all-season tires.
 

First, the Michelin Primacy MXV4 has proven to be one of Michelin's best Grand Touring All-Season tires (currently top-ranked tire in the performance category) and has just about everything you're looking for in an all-season tire. It has exceptional wet and dry traction, great handling, very good winter traction and provides a quiet ride.
 

If you really want to put some zoom back in the car, consider a set of Bridgestone Potenza RE970AS Pole Position. At present, this Ultra High Performance All-Season tire is ranked number one in its category from our customer survey results. The tire has exceptional handling and responsiveness, along with great all-season traction and would be a great choice as your next set of MAZDA 3 tires.   
 

Are you looking for a good value option tire? The Kumho Ecsta 4X is getting very good reviews and has been a popular choice among our customers. In our Tire Survey Results the tire receives high marks in hydroplaning resistance, cornering stability, dry traction, steering response and treadwear.

In between the comfort-oriented MXV4 and the ultra-performance-oriented RE970AS is the Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S V-rated. I find it is a great choice on the Mazda3. Sporty enough while being reasonably comfortable and quiet. Hits the sweet spot for me.

I have a Mazda3 which came with factory basic tires (Tundra) on 16" alloy rims. I don`t want to be doing the usual rim and tire changing each season for snow tires. So please recommend a good brand of all seasons suitable when the average snow fall happens here in S.W.Ontario.Canada

Hi Nick. I would still suggest either one of the tires mentioned above. They are all very good all season tires and my first choice would be the Michelin Primacy MXV4. Hope this helps.

In dire need to replace my OEM tires. Looking at the new Bridgestone Serenity Plus (however, no reviews on them yet). Grand Touring fine for this car versus Performance? Why is the Michelin Primacy MXV4 rated low on here from users?

A Grand Touring tire like the Serenity is a great tire and would also do just fine on a Mazda. I'm not sure what you mean by a low rating on the Primacy, it is currenty ranked number one in survey results.
