So now that springs is only 3 months away i'm going to need new tires, Last year i used the Khumo 711's ( they suck in wet weather) what i'm looking for is a tire that has normal wear and good traction i want a tire that has as good or better traction in the rain then in dry weather but don't want to sacrifice dry handling either. Let me know what rubber you guys run and what your thoughts.

Yokahoma AVS ES100 cheap all around tires. Good in the wet and dry
Falken Azeenis good in the dry sucks in the wet

I tell ya what... Go find a Miata forums and talk to those guys... Most are huge autox fans and know all about what the best tires are..

For wet i like the Kuhmo supra 712's.. but they aren't great for dry traction.. but are decent

I have the Yoko's and I'm not impressed in the least by the wet weather handling. They are good if you like to drift, but my Honda is FWD.
