Tires YOKOHAMA or NITTO
I have been driving the Yokohama Geolander M/Ts for 6 years & love them. First set lasted 5 years, and am on my second set. I live in Eastern WA at a 2000+ elevation and often get serious snow & ice on the roads, hills & in the mountains. I did a lot of research before buying them, and they have been great. About to buy some for my son's car, too.
Really enjoy Continental and Yoko. My last set of Continentals lasted 85k miles and I'd bet I could have gone another 15k if my car didn't need an alignment as all the tires had a ton of tread left on the inside and were to the wear bar on the outside.
I got the Yokohama YK-CTX when it was time for new tires and I feel like I am driving a new, better car. It is so much quieter and smoother. Ride quality has increased enormously.
I replaced all four with Yokohama Advent Ascends. These have been completely trouble free for the last 15,000 miles (24,000 km). I have not measured, but I'd bet I still have 8 or 9/32 left on all four. I expect them to last at least another 30,000 miles (49,000 km).
I am a Nito guy I love those tire I recommend the nitto ridge grappler very good highway tire but yet you still have some bite for off-road and overland
which were heaps better, noticeably a level above the bridgestones, but did cost a bit more.
They are amazing, even in the pouring rain they grip just fine, and when warmed up they dont miss a beat
I bought a set of Yokohamas once for our 07 Prius and noticed a very similar result as well. Tires were dead quiet though, but not worth the cost for us so we switched.
Yokohama sucks. There's a reason a lot of cars come with them. Cheap. Don't last.
They are great off road and absolutely terrifying in the rain. Would not recommend.
