Tires YOKOHAMA or Laufenn
Yokohama ice guard on my WRX. Does well in slush. Real good in deep snow. Wet roads very good. Dry pavement and temps above 45F, not so great.
PS: Dont go for Falken again. I replaced mine with Yokohoma Advans and they are pretty good.
Something more cost savings are the Laufenn tires (made by Hankook) great “budget” tires!
Cheap tires are easily damaged plus they don't hold as much air pressure get the best tire you possibly can the Yokohama is actually a really heavy-duty good tire you need a really good heavy duty tire.
Junkyard tires for a pizza delivery beater, at 10 bucks each you can't beat it
Yokohama's for the car you care about
I live in Michigan and use Yokohama Avid Ascend GT tires year around. Been great so far!
From personal experience on small sporty cars:
1. Yokohama Advan
With that said, those Yokes are fantastic. The wet grip on those is unbelievable, especially for a touring tire. The handling was a bit loose, but that is typical of a touring tire that isn’t Michelin.
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
Flipped Yoko really sucks.
