I have a set of Yokohama BluEarths, $120 per wheel including labour
3: [Yokohama ADVAN Apex V601]: this is a fav of all the porsche crowd at track days as they offer about 5% less grip than a PS4S or the other two tires I listed, but they will go all day at a track day and never chunk and still get 25k miles out of them.
Yokohama Advan Fleva on 19” were suuuper quiet. Pilot Sports are way more noisy. Yokohama Advan Sport are noisy too. I really enjoyed the Flevas.
I've worn out several sets of Yokes. Mine wear like butter and only last a few weekends, usually less than 100 runs. But the Yokes offer unparalleled grip of all the 200 tires I've run, especially when cold turn 1 and in cooler ambient temps.
Been running yokohama advan sports on my GTI for 3 years and they are solid for the money. They aren't as good as my Michelins but for daily driving you would never know. If you drive hard they will talk and are reliable about the break away point and don't do anything you don't expect which is what I want just can't cut a corner quite as good as my Mich on my R32.
I’ve posted my fastest times with A052s and they lasted longer than all others except RS4s.
AD09 are a good track tyre that is fine on the street. Didn't notice any degradation in noise or comfort compared to street tyres.
Both Bridgestone and Yokohama make 225/50-15s, which should work well on your wheels, too.
The OEMs on my 22 I presume are the same as what’s on the 25s. It’s perfectly adequate. It’s not the greatest, but it’s fine enough that I don’t feel compelled to replace it before end of life due to poor traction or road noise.
Not only do the sidewalls flex at highway speed when you do a lane change, they track all over the place and feel skittish. I had my front end (Prius V) checked out by a shop that I trust, and they drove it on the highway. They agree that there is an instability with this tire.
