Tires YOKOHAMA or KENDA
I am using the Kenda Wintergen 2 on a Mazda CX3 and it's good. Way more silent than the original Toyo R52 summer tires. And it's okay in the wet too. I'm driving it the 4th year now and they are definitely not worse than the Toyos in the wet.
Yokohama Advan Fleva on 19” were suuuper quiet. Pilot Sports are way more noisy. Yokohama Advan Sport are noisy too. I really enjoyed the Flevas.
I've worn out several sets of Yokes. Mine wear like butter and only last a few weekends, usually less than 100 runs. But the Yokes offer unparalleled grip of all the 200 tires I've run, especially when cold turn 1 and in cooler ambient temps.
Been running yokohama advan sports on my GTI for 3 years and they are solid for the money. They aren't as good as my Michelins but for daily driving you would never know. If you drive hard they will talk and are reliable about the break away point and don't do anything you don't expect which is what I want just can't cut a corner quite as good as my Mich on my R32.
I’ve posted my fastest times with A052s and they lasted longer than all others except RS4s.
I have these on my 01 GMC Yukon that I use for hunting/camping ( budget build). They've exceeded expectations in mud/rain/snow.
AD09 are a good track tyre that is fine on the street. Didn't notice any degradation in noise or comfort compared to street tyres.
I am about 2 seconds off pace of what I was on the falkens comparing my self to other drivers that I would be trading blows with. I will say I like the kenda alot for street driving and wet weather traction how ever it seams they are about 2 seconds off the pace of the Bridgestone.
I use Yokohama Avid Ascend LXs for my Gen 2 Prius as well. I go through a set every 10,000 miles or so.
I bought new Yokohama Avid Ascend LX BW 185/65HR15's in May of 2021. My mileage at the time was 209,674. My mileage is now 241,241 and one of my tires is bald and needs replacing. And the others ares are bald but getting low while one is still pretty good.
