Tires Hankook or YOKOHAMA
I’ve come to like Yokohama tires enough I’d take them over continental tires any day.
I tracked my 95 Miata with original, stock, 26yr old suspension with 200tw hankooks and endurance racing pads, roll bar and 6 pt harnesses was all I ran for the longest, and keep up with faster cars in intermediate/ occasionally advanced in my 95hp, 2750lb car
Nobody ever talks about Hankook Dynapro AT2's and I dont know why. I havent really tested mine on tough trails, but they have been great on rutted out fire roads and on city streets. So far so good.
Once my Yokohama geo lander tires are done I’m sticking to them for my 23 fozzy wilderness
Cazan din 2001, Nexen de vară, Bfgoodrich de iarnă, ambele clasa B la franare pe ud, anul viitor trebuie să-mi iau alt set de vară și îmi face cu ochiul Hankook cu seria Ventus Prime.
Merg pe hankook de ani de zile si recomand tuturor.
Eu mi-am cumpărat anul acesta hancook pe o alfa 159 ;) și sunt mulțumit.
Yokohama Avid Ascend GT.
Here are some excerpts from reviews:

"How is it over wet and slippery roads? As far as the Avid Ascend GT is good on dry tarmac, it might be even better on wet and slippery roads. Relatively, of course. I find the Yokohama to be outstandingly good in resisting hydroplaning – the car remains controllable even in puddles of water. Also, the advanced tread compound pays dividends on damp surfaces, where the Avid Ascend GT holds itself extremely well. Overall, this is one of the safest and easiest grand-touring tires to drive in the rain. . . .
"Is it comfortable and refined? You bet it is! This is one of the quietest tires I’ve tried recently, improving the refinement of almost any vehicle you put it on. That’s true even at very high speeds, and for cars that don’t have that much noise insulation. On top of that, the ride quality with a set of Avid Ascend GT tires will be sublime. Smaller imperfections on the road are almost completely eaten by the Yokohama, while the larger potholes are tempered with aplomb. This is perhaps the biggest reason why you would opt for a set of these tires – they are outstandingly comfortable over any surface you encounter."
Had new 701’s on my wagon when I bought it, seemed like a decent tire.
Flipped Yoko really sucks.
