Tires YOKOHAMA or Maxxis
I put G015's on my 2021 premium around January and they did not lose traction a single time through last winter in Upstate NY. Took them through the Adirondacks with ≈8" of snow on forest roads to get to a ski mtn. Great upgrade imo over the stock G91F's
Yokohama geolander G015 is a great tire
Yokohama the best for XC90. Michelin great as always but Yoko wears well, soft, quiet, and comfortable. Grips well too.
I’ve had these tires for almost 7 years in FL on my Toyota Camry. I’m really only considering new tires because I moved to the cold. They’ve made it to about 60k miles in those 7 years and even drove me across the country.
V730s are underrated imo. Very good tire for the money.
I've had the Fleva's for a couple months now and I love them. Great grip, low noise, and good compliance.
A Maxxis Shorty in DD casing and Max-Grip compound is about as slow a tyre as you can get - a Maxxis Rekon Race in Exo casing and Max-Speed compound is about the fastest thing you can put on your rims.
If you opt for replacement I run yokohama Geolander A/T G015’s on my 2014 xc70. They are wonderful tires for mixed use driving. I live in a dirt road but also have a long highway commute and the Yokohamas have been the best tire I’ve found for both surfaces.
I ride Ardents for XC and some light trail riding. They're good tires until you hit mud and wet rocks. I recently tried a faster rolling tire but felt I went slower because the grip was drastically reduced. I think they're a good all around tire but they don't excel at any one thing.
Only tires I’ve ever had a blow out on are Yokohamas. My falken wild peaks have been great
