Tires YOKOHAMA or NANKANG
I bought the avid ascend gt tires about 2 weeks ago. Quiet and smooth ride so far. Comparable to my previous Michelin tires.
They faired well, especially uphill. Trusted mechanic buddy said Blizzaks were the way to go, but these Yokohamas made me feel in control and handle well on the clear days
Recently got some Yokohama Avid Ascends after reading some recs on this sub. I like 'em.
Yokohama avid on my xse non-premium as well. We just got our first snow here in Maryland, and it performed exceptionally imo.
Depends how u drive ur car. But if budget not an issue, go for michelin or yokohama.
In August 2020, I had Yokohama Avid Ascend LX installed on the vehicle and I have to say that 2 months later that was the best decision I made to swap the OEM's off. My CRV came back to what it used to be and even better in the driving experience. The road behavior is great, breaking is solid and my gas mileage went way down. Wet driving feel really safe.
I replaced mine with Yokohama YK740 GTX's.
The accuracy improved after I installed new Yokohama 225/60/18 tires. With the stock Giti tires the speedo was showing 1-2mph over the actual speed which I believe was also affecting the MPG accuracy. The speedo is spot-on now with the new "60" series tires.
I had them on the c5s, drove them prettybhard in all sorts of weather and they were great,.. But at the first sigh of snow they were horrible, barely made it home with a 1/4 in of snow.. Dry wet however was great and to me they seemed silent..
lol i wanna know too, my nankangs wore way to fast for me.
