Tires YOKOHAMA or FEDERAL
Just changed these out in my 2017! 67k miles. I really liked them, but they were unavailable at discount tire so now I’ve got Yokohama somethings.
Federal 595's are to my knowledge, the best bang for your buck.
Yokohama ADVAN Sport A/S actually is quite value for money so to speak.
For road tires I have Yokohama Avid GT on my Impreza and I’ve been very happy with them in the wet and light snow that we get in Memphis (they are a snowflake rated tire).
I have used the 595-RSR tires for 8 years now, several sets. yes they are noisy, get worse with miles but I noticed the newest ones were even louder! These tires are the ultimate in grip/handling, one of the few that can put FWD power to the ground. Make my cars handle like its on rails and they don't squeal when pushing to the limit around corners. They are so sticky they pick up all the rocks/debris and throw it up in your wheel wells/rockers. I think they are easily one the best handling tire out there. Very stiff sidewalls, but extremely loud (like louder than winter tires). If you can handle the sound and dont expect a lot of miles out of them, go for it.
If you are shopping the 235/65 17 size you can get Yokohama g015 for 160 each. They are great tires loved them on my tacoma. Now I have wrangler AT Kevlar not as good imho
I put G015's on my 2021 premium around January and they did not lose traction a single time through last winter in Upstate NY. Took them through the Adirondacks with ≈8" of snow on forest roads to get to a ski mtn. Great upgrade imo over the stock G91F's
Yokohama geolander G015 is a great tire
I have the Ascend LX as my summer set but I couldn't quite find a direct comparison talking about the LX compared to the GT The LX's are supposed to have been rated for 85K, but they're already at 6/32s after 25K. Other than that I haven't had much of an issue with them
Just swapped my stock Yokohama’s on my XSE with Falken Wildpeaks, these Yokohamas are garbage!!
