I have been driving the Yokohama Geolander M/Ts for 6 years & love them. First set lasted 5 years, and am on my second set. I live in Eastern WA at a 2000+ elevation and often get serious snow & ice on the roads, hills & in the mountains. I did a lot of research before buying them, and they have been great. About to buy some for my son's car, too.
Really enjoy Continental and Yoko. My last set of Continentals lasted 85k miles and I'd bet I could have gone another 15k if my car didn't need an alignment as all the tires had a ton of tread left on the inside and were to the wear bar on the outside.
Switched from Toyos to the Pirelli Scorpion and instantly felt a difference. Much more quiet and smooth
Pirelli Scorpion AS3 is what I got after the toros and they did not disappoint
I got the Yokohama YK-CTX when it was time for new tires and I feel like I am driving a new, better car. It is so much quieter and smoother. Ride quality has increased enormously.
The Pirellis, at this pressure, are quite smooth and free rolling. But the weight is never forgotten, and getting to speed takes effort. The reflective sides are bright and clear, and lend a bit of comfort to riding in low-light mornings/evenings.
Thus far, no punctures. At 1500km, though, the rear's showing its wear (front looks nice still) and flattened off at the centre of the tread.
Traction-wise, I've had no concerns. Both: rain/shine they've given me no pause or worry. Riding on various surfaces: asphalt, concrete, gravel, dirt, packed limestone - they seem to just work well.
I replaced all four with Yokohama Advent Ascends. These have been completely trouble free for the last 15,000 miles (24,000 km). I have not measured, but I'd bet I still have 8 or 9/32 left on all four. I expect them to last at least another 30,000 miles (49,000 km).
Wilderness forester handling steep grades like a champ, stock Yokohama Geolandar tires did not like climbing back up though
Had Pirelli P Zeros on my RS3, all 4 began cracking (3/4 years old). Purchased 4 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres today, haven’t tested them in anger yet. Had them on my Mustang, managed to avoid putting it up a tree or into a crowd with the shitty UK weather.
Yokohama A-drive: horrível, no seco vai muito bem... na chuva vira sabão, pneu perigoso.
