Tires YOKOHAMA or Maxxis
Judging by the comments no one likes the Geolandar G015s anymore, but I'm on my second set now and have loved them the whole time.
I just bought 2 for the front on my 2016 Camry the day before a trip and put 1500 miles on them. Great in the rain, I never felt like it was hydroplaning. In dry conditions they are incredibly responsive. Some people will oversteer because of this and think it feels loose but it’s a very responsive tire which is exactly what you want. No vibrations up to 90MPH so they balance out well and the Camry is very sensitive to vibrations. I’m very happy with this tire and will be slapping two more on the back. The only thing is they aren’t quite as quiet as the Michelin Primacy MX4 that came on the car but the Yokohama are $70 less per tire and the difference is really negligible. Hardly something to be concerned about. I’d recommend them to anyone without hesitation.
I really like the DHR as a front tire. I run it F/R sometimes. It has a slightly faster feel, good braking traction, enough bite to lay it over hard.
Excellent tire tread. But I recommend DD or DH casing instead of exo +, depending on the skill of trails you are planning to ride and how hard/advanced rider you are.
Exo is too light of a sidewall. On the front go minimum with the new exo+. Grip wise the Assegai or dhf front or good bit Assegai rear is draggy and makes a difference on the high speed jump lines. I’d go dhr2 rear in the dd casing with a liner.
The first thing I did was change the ORM tires to Yokohama Geolandar go15 in 215/75 r15. I am very pleased with the new tires so far.
On most cars the RE71RS is probably the most versatile and better wearing. On many cars the Yokohama A052 is the fastest. It depends on what type of car you have, how much camber you can get, are you traction limited, etc.
Based on experience:
Bridgestone

Yokohama
- Makapit din pero mas mabilis mapudpod vs. Bridgestone
Wilderness forester handling steep grades like a champ, stock Yokohama Geolandar tires did not like climbing back up though
I fitted a Maxxis 2.50 WT DHF to my i25 rims. It squirmed and rolled like nobody’s business and cornering was downright scary. I doubt things will be much better on an i28 rim.
