Tires Pirelli or YOKOHAMA
Got mine from discount tire @ 10k miles. Didn’t get any snow with the oem Pirellis but can confirm the defenders are AMAZING in light snow (ATL). No regrets
Just installed these on my 22’s and way too early to speak to range but the grip is way better than the default pirellis (particularly on the snow we have had) though there is slightly more road noise
I have the 119 version of these same tires on my R1T and haven’t noticed a range difference vs the original pirellis
Have these in 22 and they're infinitely better than the default scorpions. Range is comparable if not slightly better by maybe 5%
Pirelli Angel GT or GT2. Works in a broad range of temperatures, predictable. And plenty grippy to drag pegs.
My kid put on Yokohama ADVAN Sport V105S on his BRZ and is quite happy saying they’re almost as good at a significant discount from the Michelins.
Yokohama Advan Apex v601. They have more steering feel than Pilot Sports, will last about as long. Good on the dry and the rain.
I bought a set of Yokohamas once for our 07 Prius and noticed a very similar result as well. Tires were dead quiet though, but not worth the cost for us so we switched.
I swapped out pirelli's to Michelin super sports on my gti and it was a night and day difference.
They have great grip, but they have insane pricing and terrible wear. The stock pirellis on my SRT GC lasted only 13k miles. I get 30k+ from everything else I put on it. The pirelli cost $600 each. My current nittos were under $300 each.
