- Mazda 2, Touring Alloy 1.3lt
As you may know, Mazda2 comes with 16'' alloy wheels, wearing Toyo proxes tyres. These tyres under the greek circumstances (not so good quality of tarmac) are terrible. I was unable to brake efficiently in cases of emergency and lots of times I felt like the car was ready to "fly".
Therefore I decided to scrap the stock tyres and buy a new set of Michelin Exalto.
TERRIBLE difference.. The car became more steady, under any circumstances, more predictable and less bumpy! It seems that the profile of the Michelin tyres is much less hard than the one of the Toyos...
Sorry about Mazda that launched a quite expensive small car, with such poor tyres in Europe.
