Hi guys:
Looking to replace tires in the subject. Need all seasons.
The car is an 07 Mazda 6 - OEM was Michelin Primacy - which I didn't like enough to justify paying the Michelin premium. Replaced them with Kumho Ecsta ASX's. The Kumhos were pretty good, but lost wet traction as they aged, and really poor (now outright dangerous) in even the lightest dusting of snow.
Looking for a replacement that is cheaper than the Michelin / Continental recommendation I see on Tirerack. Longevity isn't a concern - the car sees light miles, and the tires will dry rot (or the car will rust out around them) before being worn.
Any help appreciated. I had Yokos (AVID?) on another car that I really liked. Also had OEM Continentals (Procontact) on a Honda that were nicely balanced for all seasons. How does Continental compare to Generals (Altimax?)?
