Throughout its history, Mazda’s top models have varied depending on different markets and the demands of drivers. One of the earliest models that earned popularity was the Mazda-Go, while models like the Mazda MX-5 Miata combine powerful steering and handling with a lightweight build and compact design. The Mazda RX-7 FD is one of the top sports models from the Mazda range, pairing well with premium sports car tyres like the Pirelli P Zero tyres for optimum performance.
Mazda’s portfolio of vehicles includes popular SUVs and cars which can traverse different climates and terrains – including the Mazda CX-50 and the Mazda CX-5. Both of these vehicles have off-road features like higher ground clearance, with the CX-50 boasting an off-road driving mode which enhances traction. Choosing the correct tyres is integral to ensuring safe handling off-road. For the Mazda CX-50 in particular, tyre models like the Michelin CrossClimate 2 and the Bridgestone Ecopia G/L 422 Plus are highly regarded.
The right tyres for your vehicle will depend on the car model and how you want to drive it – however, like many other high-performance car brands, Mazda lists premium tyres at the top of its list. That means opting for a range of tyres from brands like Bridgestone, Pirelli, and Michelin, which boast features to maximise the performance of the vehicle, offer unrivalled handling and deliver a premium driving experience.
Some Mazda vehicles come equipped with run-flat tyres, making the most of the benefits which include added convenience and enhanced safety. For run-flat tyres to be truly beneficial, drivers need to have a TPMS installed in their car which allows them to see when there’s a drop in tyre pressure and adjust their driving accordingly. More important than tyre add-ons, is making sure that the tyre size is compatible with the vehicle.
The best way to keep tyres on the road for as long as possible is to ensure they are suitable for the terrain and climate, to check them regularly, and to make sure they wear down at a consistent rate across the entire surface. All-season tyres, winter tyres, and summer tyres all have benefits for drivers, from handling to comfort and control. Making the right selection according to your location and climate is key, as is checking the tyre tread falls above the 1.6mm legal minimum, and checking for signs of damage.
