Best Tires for the Mazda Mazda 6 2.5 GH

Do not buy these they are unsafe. Bought a complete set of 4 in December 2024 as the weather was only going to get colder and never tried all season tires before. Transformed my car, for the worse. I've often bought budget tires, as for me, they're good enough to drive loads with the odd fast bit in good conditions. Never experienced poor wet grip with the choices I've made. However, that has all changed with these tires. I covered 150 miles before removing them. Really light steering and when you take a bend they track a lot wider than summer tires. The first dangerous problem I had was on a tight left turn where there was just a bit of morning dew on the road. The car understeered for a split second before snatching grip and that felt like it wanted to flick the back end out. I knew this bend and wanted to compare to my previous tires. From that moment on I lost all confidence in the tires. Even on dry sweeping country roads you feel like you're driving at their limit at normal safe speeds (below the national speed limit) forget any fun stuff. Everything is exaggerated in the wet and you wonder if they'll stop in a straight line quickly without locking up. I am shocked it's legal to sell tires like this as they will contribute to accidents on the road. Anyway, enough waffle, just don't buy these.
Incidentally, they are made by the same group of tire companies owned by the Zodo Group in China. These tires also look identical to the Grenlander GreenWing AS tire, which got a poor review when included in an All Season tire review on youtube by Tire Reviews. The reviewer said they were good in snow & on ice but poor in wet handling, braking and even dry handling. Watch the review as the visual reference of different braking distances is shocking and these iLink tires felt the same as those GreenWing tires.

I bought these tires with car. Spent one winter with them. These are one of the worst tires I had. In temperatures under 0°C it is almost ok except wet. Between 0-5°C it become slip litzle bit in wet. Between 5-10°C it become slip in dry. Above 15°C it acts like in mud when you drive on dry road. And they are too noisy like have siren still turned on. Compared to Goodyear Ultragrip 9 fitted on the other cars in family it is sh*t. I will never buy them and for next winter season will take the Goodyear UG Performance Gen 1 tires.

These tires lack grip both dry and wet. My car, that is by no means powerful, easily spin them from standstill and on inclines. I would call these dangerous in the wet as they are frequently prone to aquaplaning.
On the plus side, the tire does give very direct steering feel and is easy to control just past its limit which made for some fun drifting. Wears well too - have done roughly 80,000km on a combination of highway and city roads.

awesome tires. amazing dry and wet grip. slightly noisy but worth it. car steers exactly where you want it to go. Towards end of life does not peel like Michelin PS3. Lasted me about 50,000 KM. dry grip is awesome even when reaching end of life.
