Tires YOKOHAMA or BRIDGESTONE
RE71r - on all four corners of my S6. Really sticky and ride well.
I appreciate seeing the tire conversations here in particular because I have a 2019 GX460 Premium (no lift, Lexus rims, nothing special yet) and tires are a fresh concern but I don't mean to hijack a topic on two other specific tire models, and if it's inappropriate I can delete this, but has anybody got any thoughts on Yokohama Geolandars for a GX?
I've run 2 or 3 sets on my former vehicle, a 2013 Nissan Rogue, and they were simply fantastic.
After a massive blowout on 422 here in PA a few months back, and having HUGE bubbles in the sidewalls of two other tires and a large gash (no idea where this came from) of the spare that went on, I replaced all four with a set of Bridgestone RE980 AS+'s. What a difference in the way the car rides and grips. You can feel the Bridgestone's handle the bumps SO much better than the stock Conti's and there's much more grip.
I lived in Boston for a while and i used blizzak tires. They worked well.
You should expect a slightly worse gas mileage, but not by much. In exchange you're getting excellent traction in the snow and rain though, so definitely a good choice for a tire.
I've been running Yokohama ascend gt for a month now. They are super quiet and v rated tire. These are much better tires then stock no doubt!
I haven’t gotten my MYLR yet, but on my CX-5 I did a ton of research and the Bridgestone Weatherpeak edged out CC2 on many fronts.
I drove through some bad winter storms on them and they’re a beast. My MPG was also not affected, or were barely affected (like 0.2-0.4mpg less), compared to the Toyo stock tires.
The Geolanders are my favorite, I don't do much off road or inclement weather for that matter any more but I love the way they stick to the road.
While I do notice the comfort and quietness of the Turanza Quiettrack in the week I've had them, so far, sometimes, it feels like I'm driving in mud, ie the car feels sluggish. The fuel efficiency has also decreased noticeably.
I was a little disappointed with the icy road performance of the Yokohama AVID GT that came on mine.
