Tires YOKOHAMA or Goodyear
If you opt for replacement I run yokohama Geolander A/T G015’s on my 2014 xc70. They are wonderful tires for mixed use driving. I live in a dirt road but also have a long highway commute and the Yokohamas have been the best tire I’ve found for both surfaces.
Hankook tires are great I ran mine 40k but even better were Goodyear Eagles LS-2 just bought a second set of 4 after 60k. Goodyear says 70k and they probably would go 80k if rotated correctly and often.
I bought Yokohama yk gtx from Discoumt tire. I have about 5k on them and they’ve been excellent so far.
I would recommend Firestone Destinations or Yokohama Geolandars. I’ve seen them go pretty well.
And I will tell you that, for my money, Yokohama are great tires.
I’ve come to like Yokohama tires enough I’d take them over continental tires any day.
Once my Yokohama geo lander tires are done I’m sticking to them for my 23 fozzy wilderness
I have since transitioned to a set of Goodyear Wrangler A/Ts (275/60/20) for the past year and a half.
The best I’ve gotten was shy over 19 MPG (19.3-19.5) but average 17-18 MPG highway, same speeds 65-70 MPH.
City is around 14-16 on average.
I found them to be pretty garbage for traction even on dry pavement, but they were quiet and smooth and lasted very well.
Personally I’d go with the Khumos, but that’s mostly because I had a shit experience with Goodyears.
