Tires YOKOHAMA or GT Radial
I always used Yokohama, but that was on a dodge Dakota. I love Yokohama tires personally
I bought them last year for my Nissan and they have been really good. Very grippy, low noise and smooth. The compound feels to be on the softer side but haven't seen excessive wear yet.
This doesn't apply to you, as you're in California, but my winter tires are Yokohama and they're the best winter tires I've ever had. I've had Michelin, Pirelli, Bridgestone.
Yokohama are best high quality for the $. They cost less than Michelin, continental, etc but perform just as well, imo.
Yokohama is your best bang for the buck on the list. You are never going to be mad about going with the Michelins though.
Wife's focus had the yokohoma blue earth gt, they provided good grip wet or dry....managed to outrun essex police with them on when it was stolen as well.
As far as tyres go, I swear by Yokohama’s.
They can be a little soft and they don’t last forever but I’ve never found the limit of grip and I have a highly modified car and drive like I stole it.
Cheap versus branded - branded will be better everytime. In a small car with little brakes you want the best contact possible.
Just replaced mine at a little over 25,000 miles. From other posters I knew it was coming sooner rather than later. I ended up putting Yokohama Geolander A/Ts on
Two major alignments on my 22 Outback Premium 16,000 miles and the tires need replacing, under warranty sir thanks, I was told yeah that’s typical with the Yokohama’s?
