Tires YOKOHAMA or NITTO
Replaced with Yokohama Geolandars AT XD (GO17). Decent in the snow, and I feel as though they're better than KO2's/AT3s (owned both).
Yokohama Geolander AT or Extreme AT . Awesome tires in all weather conditions. They are good tires though.
Got a set of 4 of them for my 2010 4x4 5.7L and they are fantastic in the extreme winter and rain in the Northeast.
Yokohama Geolanders for tires. Drove another ~50 miles on packed snow roads once I hit the NMW and had zero issues with traction or sliding around.
The Yoke Advan Apex 601 was a damn good tire for the price. I moved to supercar 3's and it was only slightly faster.
Like mine, I’m running Nitto NT555 G2s, they have around a 30k mileage run. As opposed to Michelins Defender 2 which have an 80k mileage the compound on most daily tires should be a little harder, lasting longer.
Just replaced a set of Yokohama Avid Ascend GTs on my Mazda3.....after 81k miles. They still had a little wear left. Treadware warranty was 65k. No recent alignment but regular rotations. Never had a flat either, on crappy New England roads.
I tried Yokohama before, while grip is good, it wears out faster.
The ride is nice, noise is low, but the wet traction is very poor.
NT05 isn't great. And I hate the 555's - the orig were cheap and OK but the G2 is worse, you can do better with Firestone Indy 500's or Continental ExtremeContact both are about 300TW.
