Cheap tires are easily damaged plus they don't hold as much air pressure get the best tire you possibly can the Yokohama is actually a really heavy-duty good tire you need a really good heavy duty tire.
Junkyard tires for a pizza delivery beater, at 10 bucks each you can't beat it
Yokohama's for the car you care about
I live in Michigan and use Yokohama Avid Ascend GT tires year around. Been great so far!
From personal experience on small sporty cars:
1. Yokohama Advan
Nitto makes a good snow tire also. I had the SN-2 on my Tiguan, and wished the SN-3 was available in the US... which I would immediately buy if given the opportunity.
With that said, those Yokes are fantastic. The wet grip on those is unbelievable, especially for a touring tire. The handling was a bit loose, but that is typical of a touring tire that isn’t Michelin.
The yokohamas are probably your best bet, theyre some of the best tires on the market especially given their price. Pirellis are overrated as fuck and are not needed unless youre racing on a track, and they wear out extremely fast. Continentals are definitely the second best choice, especially if youre looking for a summer tire or something very grippy.
The only weak spot were the tires. The OEM Yokohamas inspired zero confidence so they were removed and sold. The cars is super comfortable, uses regular gas and the clutch/Shifter feel are great. LED lighting is a really nice touch as well
I run NT05 on my R32. I'm in AZ so rain isn't much of a worry, but the times I have driven it in the rain, I never had much of an issue. I think when they wear, and they will much more quickly than your average tire, they will become very tricky to use in the wet.
I was a little disappointed with the icy road performance of the Yokohama AVID GT that came on mine.
