Im using Yokohama Geolander A/T 015 rightnnow and they're pretty good at taking small bumps, providing a good ride and maintaining bettee than average grip at turning. Was a good ride.
Road noise isn't bad.
I went with the Toyo Extensa HP II because it was a good compromise on price/efficiency/grip/noise. My biggest complaint with the OEM tires was that they hydroplaned worse than any tire I’ve had on a car since the 80s and these Toyos are much better. Range is down, maybe, 2-5%, maybe more on longer drives at speed, but EVERYTHING else about these tires is leagues better…ride, handling, noise, braking…everything.
My buddy has P Zero Winter on his S4
and he likes them. I have Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 and they are nice but the sidewall is not as stiff as the Pirellis. Still happy with them though.
I always used Yokohama, but that was on a dodge Dakota. I love Yokohama tires personally
Needed tires for my CX-5 and they had these at the shop. So far they are better than the stock Toyo A36.
Toyos and Kumhos have served me well over tens of thousands of miles. Toyo Open Country AT3W and Kumho Crugen HT51. Michelins are known as the best tire for longevity and commuting.
This doesn't apply to you, as you're in California, but my winter tires are Yokohama and they're the best winter tires I've ever had. I've had Michelin, Pirelli, Bridgestone.
Yokohama are best high quality for the $. They cost less than Michelin, continental, etc but perform just as well, imo.
R888r actually heat okay. They're just ancient and overpriced. Their wear life is horrible. They're noisy.
Two major alignments on my 22 Outback Premium 16,000 miles and the tires need replacing, under warranty sir thanks, I was told yeah that’s typical with the Yokohama’s?
