Yokohama avid ascend GTs. Get them on tire rack and have a trusted local shop instal them. I had Michelin pilot sports on my mk6 from Costco and these are better and cheaper. They’re also fantastic in the rain.
I’ve been running a set of Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 in factory dimensions year round on my 3.6. They perform pretty damn well in the snow, great in the rain, awesome off road, and they’re quiet.
shitty frs prius tires to firestone firehawk indy 500s
215 to 245
Went from oh my god what the fuck is this to oh my god it's like I'm getting gripped by a large african man and^it^feels^amazing
Only after 3 months replaced with Yokohama Advan Sport A/S.
Current review on them is:
Dry pavement: A+ (I can take turns like a race driver on bare pavement and still feel safe)
Wet Pavement: B (Only problem I’ve had starting aggressively is on wet pavement with road markings on them, seems good on corners and doesn’t hydroplane on really wet pavement, but loses traction with hard braking on very wet pavement)
Roughish Roads: A- (my car has low clearance and low profile tires but got by easily on FS roads with medium rocks and being careful. It gets the minus because after driving 75 miles on semi rough FS roads and getting back to pavement, I pulled to the side of the highway and had a metal chunk lodge into the sidewall ruining the tire)
I went from some random tires (Achilles or something) to Yoko AD08rs and yeah those were amazing. So much better on Khanacross and back roads
People are really enjoying the [Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s](https://www.firestonetire.com/tire/firehawk-indy-500). He friend got a set for his ms3 and likes them.
Once I moved up to Firestone Winterforce, and Winterforce 2 the next year, I was always confident I could keep control in any amount of random mess.
I recently got Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 and they are great especially for $79 per tire.
After 2 weeks of looking and doing homework. Analysis paralysis? I bought Yokahama YK740 GTX. 225/50/17. So far I like them. I was also looking at the "Continental pro contact" as well but the Yokahama had better ratings. If your into that kinda thing. (I was). The wider tire looks kinda cool too.
I worked for Firestone installing tires for a while, and those tires are pretty bad. I guess all budget tires are probably the same, but I wouldn't want those on my car. The number of recalls that went out on those was crazy, almost weekly. They also wear pretty damn fast, and don't grip for shit.
