Ad09 is a fantastic tire for your use case, I used to run nankang ar1, now I run ado9 and it's a great tire.
For straight time-attack speed it's either the Yokohama A052 (for 1 lap) or the new RE71RS (for several laps).
82k on my 2020 and somehow still rocking the Yokohamas that came with it (just barely above wear bars now). I drive 120 mile round trips on the highway at least 3x per week and travel between 65-90mph. I've never had a single issue.
Had Geolandars and they were fun nice tires
I also replaced my stock Yokohama tires on my OBW with the new wildpeaks AT4w for stronger sidewall and been quite happy with its offroad performance.
I just got the YK-CTX 225/55r19 on my ‘21 CX-5. Yokes is stiffer than the stock tires but happy with the less road noise, better grip and braking, and almost same MPG considering I’ve only driven them for 300+ miles.
Yokohama naman... well... they're Yokohama. Great performance.
My Yokohama have been on my truck for about 7 years, I only drive it a couple thousand miles a year. No cracks and tread is still great.
Wilderness forester handling steep grades like a champ, stock Yokohama Geolandar tires did not like climbing back up though
Same, bought 4 Yokohama tires a while back and ever since they’re making this buzzing noise when driving around 120-140 on the highway. According to the nearby tyre shop it could be because of how the profile on the tires are, Yokohama and so Yokodrama, hence the tyre shop.
