Cheap versus branded - branded will be better everytime. In a small car with little brakes you want the best contact possible.
Ending up going with some Yokohama Geolandar CV G058. Had em for 8 days now. I have noticed my fuel economy is slightly better on the G058s
I have the Yokohama Geolander AT. Great on the road, off road, and in the rain!
I got the Hankook iON EVO AS tires and like them so far. Hopefully they don’t bubble on sidewall as easily as the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires.
I appreciate seeing the tire conversations here in particular because I have a 2019 GX460 Premium (no lift, Lexus rims, nothing special yet) and tires are a fresh concern but I don't mean to hijack a topic on two other specific tire models, and if it's inappropriate I can delete this, but has anybody got any thoughts on Yokohama Geolandars for a GX?
I've run 2 or 3 sets on my former vehicle, a 2013 Nissan Rogue, and they were simply fantastic.
I use 165/80 r15 hankook summer tires and they are excellent, both wet and dry grip.
I've been running Yokohama ascend gt for a month now. They are super quiet and v rated tire. These are much better tires then stock no doubt!
Back to the actual tires, so far my completely subjective take is that they are indeed quieter and smoother than the factory Bridgestone Alenzas.
Years ago I had an enlightening experience with Hankook Dynapro MTs, when I broke a tire and for a few weeks in winter had a a siped tire on on end of the rear axle and an unsiped tire on the other. The limited slip had to work very hard to keep me on the road in ice conditions in 2WD.
I have 4 on my GLI and I doubt they will last 35,000 km. I took them off and put on my winters at 25K and they don't look like they will last much longer. I don't drive my car hard at all. Last winter, with 5000 to 7000 km on them, I could barely move in a parking lot with 10 cm of snow.
