Tires YOKOHAMA or Continental
Fwiw, replacing the stock Pirellis with Continental CrossContacts has made such a huge difference in ride quality and noise. The OEM Pirellis are garbage.
And I will tell you that, for my money, Yokohama are great tires.
I’d recommend the continental extreme contacts.. best bang for buck with all seasons imo..
I upgraded to continental dws 06+, for the price I don't think you can beat them. more than double the treadlife of the stock tires, great performance in varying driving conditions.
I’ve come to like Yokohama tires enough I’d take them over continental tires any day.
Continental VikingContact 7 on steel rims.
Best I’ve had in 24 brutal Montreal winters.
Continental Extreme DWS on my wagon, 18". They ride really nice and are way more aggressive than the pirellis that either of my volvos came with.
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 is a better overall tire, and tested betting in dry and wet traction...
I’m running 5000tl on my Aeolus 5. With three tire levers it’s like 5 min a tire now that I’ve got the system down.
Soooo yes and no. I live in Fairbanks, AK and they honestly did pretty decent for deep snow HOWEVER once it went -40°F and that snow slowly turned into hardpack I instantly swapped them out for Falken AT Trails. Although not as good as a dedicated winter tire they did WAYYYY better than the Avid GTs which almost lead me into a few close calls since THEY HAD ABSOLUTELY 0 TRACTION
