Tires YOKOHAMA or Goodyear
I run Yoko Advan APex AD08Rs on the track and love them. Very sticky, very consistent, great track tires for wear and consistent performance. They last me about 14-18 track days (about a year of tracking for me).
On the street, they seem to work well, maybe a bit less grip than the OE tires when accelerating, but I don’t push it too hard on public roads so it’s tough to judge performance. They aren’t any noisier than the Continentals; if anything they might be a bit quieter.
Great set of tires, I have used multiple sets. Quiet on the road, works well in the wet, and works great for a lapping tire as well and a fraction of the price of its Michelin counterparts.
Just got rid of my Nittos for the Advans, so far a better tire. Best part is one of the few tires in the OE size that has a 25k mileage warranty.
Yokohama ADVAN Sport A/S. I've had them on there for 3 years, I've been happy. I live in a place that doesn't get incredibly cold or snowy, more like 3 seasons with occasional freezing temps, so they do well in those conditions.
Yokohama G015, has cool looking sidewalls, but quiet like standard passenger cars, can still do a surprising amount of light-offroad, great in rain.
Goodyear eagle ones on the factory 19s. Solid ride, comfortable, and plenty of traction
On 2nd set of Yokohama advans. Much better than OEMs
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
From my personal experience from owning Goodyear’s that they are only good for one good year and horrible in the rain trying to take off from a dead stop.
