Tires YOKOHAMA or Goodyear
I had a set of these on my old GMT400 Suburban, and I loved them.
Yokohama Geolandar A/T. I picked these out for my mom's Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. They aren't loud, they work well in all weather conditions (reason for getting them was for snow/all season because she doesn't drive enough to warrant snow tires).
I run goodyear eagle F1 asymmetric 2 on my car. Good for between £70-80 per tyre.
My friend had them on his fiesta st which was putting out 300ft lbs of torque and he had no issues. Also great in the rain.
Continental Extreme Contact for winter and Goodyear Eagle Sport all season. Was expecting to remove the seasonal tires but have not done so in last 2 years. Seventy percent highway/ thirty city. Very good tire in snow and ice. Was not expecting that. Benefits: gas mileage up about 50km per tank, better handling on pavement (less mushy on highway) due to less sipes in tread. Great handling less body roll, crisp cornering.
Yokohama S drives are pretty cheap now since they are an "older" tire design. I really like them on my fiesta, plenty of grip, and I'm getting decent mileage out of them.
I have Firestone Winterforce tires on 15" Forester wheels for the winter set and Goodyear Assurance all seasons on 16" impreza wheels for summer tires.
Generally these purchases have been stuff that there was no way whatsoever to get locally: Yokohama AVS Intermediate in my 240SX's stock 15" size.
I've had it happen to me from Discount Tire, but luckily they were closeout and discounted already. They were my previous set of Geolander ATS for my Forester. Awesome tires though, never had an issue in 55k miles.
Just got them replaced with Yokohamas this week and got a similar warranty refund on them. It’s absurd that they only made it to 10K miles, but I love the car so much I’m not complaining much about it.
I have Eagle F1's on my 986 and am totally underwhelmed.
