Tires Nexen or YOKOHAMA
I have tired Yokohama tires, and Mohave(discount tire), and so far I have liked these the best. Quiet, good traction.
Nexen are not bad for a budget brand but I think the BFG's would be worth it.
I've had great experience with it as well. Been driving through the Sierra Nevadas in heavy snow and ice, chain controls for everyone without 4wd and snow tires, and the thing drives like it's on rails. Very impressive.
At the Beeville Pro Solo I ran both the Vitour and Yokohama on my AST/STR ND, and went faster on the Yokohama. On the Yokohama, the front would just GO, with good entry rotation.
I have Nexen N FERA Supreme on my car it is more comfortable and quieter than Hankook S1 evo 3
Have these on my 981S, they are excellent. I have just done weekend drives, they have great manners. Looking forward to racing them when I switch from skis to cars.
Have driven my set (255 40 R17) for around 70 laps of the Nürburgring Nordschleife, grip is quite good, don't take too long to heat up, and have excellent heat resistance. I can empty a fuel tank (5 laps) without noticing a performance drop off.
The OEMs on my 22 I presume are the same as what’s on the 25s. It’s perfectly adequate. It’s not the greatest, but it’s fine enough that I don’t feel compelled to replace it before end of life due to poor traction or road noise.
I use Yokohama Avid Ascend LXs for my Gen 2 Prius as well. I go through a set every 10,000 miles or so.
I bought new Yokohama Avid Ascend LX BW 185/65HR15's in May of 2021. My mileage at the time was 209,674. My mileage is now 241,241 and one of my tires is bald and needs replacing. And the others ares are bald but getting low while one is still pretty good.
