Tires YOKOHAMA or Kumho
We switched to kumho after blowing through the OEM Bridgestones. Much better IMHO.
thanks for the tip, will keep these in mind. my original hankook tyres and 19" were giving such harsh ride I've [downsized to 18" with Yokohama All Terrain](https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/comments/15fb1m8/downsized_tyres/), but now I'm thinking of giving these a go on my 19" original alloy too for summer perhaps!
We had Kumhos on the first ID4 for 2-3000 miles and they seemed perfectly fine to me.
Have the stock kumhos from vw which to my knowledge are not the ev specific kumhos that are out now. 17k miles and 0 issues, plenty of tread left. Quiet, ride nice, and do well in rain/deep snow. Definitely recommend them.
Anyway, on my 2022 Elantra Hybrid Limited, I replaced the stock wheels and tires with 15" aluminum wheels and Yokohama Avid Ascend GT 195/65R15 to improve ride quality and durability (pothole resistance).
I have gotten great wear out of Yokohama Avid Ascend GT on my Model 3, and it appears to fit the 19” Y as well.
It seems the Kumho scores higher in wet conditions, while the dry performance is quite similar to the Toyo.
HS52 is pretty solid, given the recent balance between Kumho and Toyo I would expect it to outperform the Toyo.
my last set of tires were Kumho AT51s that I bought for the same reason - got them for a little over $500 for four, so I said WTH. They were alright and, for what I paid for them, I think I got my money out of them, but I ended up replacing them about 10-15k miles before their stated life because one of them had a steel belt break and it was making a horrible sound, especially at low speed. They were also kinda loud for just being an A/T
Kumho tires don’t last, the rubber cracks out.
