I have had the yokohama advan decibels which are specially designed to run quiet, they're pretty good but sacrifice some traction.
Running on Yokohama Advan Apex V601, instant favorite of mine now, way better than the PS4's
Now have the Yokohama Geolanders and certainly believe they're a better tire.
2012 MK6 GTI: Continental ExtremeContact Sport - Replaced with Continental Control Contact Sport SRS+ - Replaced with Yokohama Advan Apex (Best summer tire other than PS4S)
We went with Yokohama AVID Ascend GTs as replacement. They're 5 year 65K warranty tires.
I have never even heard about this brand. I got Yokohama for summer and Bridgestone for winter and they work in wet conditions
I’m 1 month in on my first set of Geolandar AT’s and have had snow up in northern AB for a couple of weeks. Initial observations: love them! They are quieter than either the KO2 or Duratrac. I haven’t noticed any improvement in fuel economy. On snow and ice covered roads though, my early observation is they outperform the other tires I’ve used. All in all, they are meeting my relatively high expectations for them so far.
I had the Geolandars on my 4wd Tacoma when I lived in Alaska. I never got snow tires during winter because I thought I’d be good enough with the Geos. They worked well enough for me, although a couple of times I did slip. Nothing major. I just ended up using my brakes further away from my intended stopping point. In the rain they worked great, never had an issue. Versatile tire without the price point of BFG. Also, the ride on dry highways wasn’t loud and obnoxious, smooth ride imo.
From what I can gather, the 195/65 14 I have on there now are fairly stiff. Not as stiff as I'd like though. I still get a little plowing fron the front end on some onramps, but maybe a couple more PSI will help that. Of course, what I have to compare it to are a set of Falken Azenis, so really, there is no comparison.
I was not a fan of these tires in the snow. Never seemed to have an issue getting the car going, but did have the car oversteer and slide in the snow a few times.
