I have Yokohama geolanders with the semi-aggressive tread. Set at 36 psi, and I get about 20 mpg backroads and highway. Lower the psi and hit the trails if I need. Plus I like the white lettering....
Yokohama Geolanders have always been my go-to. From a 92 Chevy to an 01 Ford, when I need to replace my stock tires, that's what I plan. Great long life, an amazing grip, and can handle some dirt and light mud.
I will resurrect this just because my car came with Sailun Atrezzo 480. I bought a 3rd gen Prius 4 years ago with 76K and it now has 142K. The tires have been fine & just getting to the wear bars. I was going to replace them at first but kind of tested them for traction in dry and rain and they seemed to grip good. I was just tire shopping and was going to get Michelins but decided on another set of Sailuns since I have been happy with them and it was $680.00 compared to $250.00. I would not have considered them if they did not come on the car but now that they have proven themselves I am getting another set. Yes you get what you pay for but these have been as good as anything else for a daily driver.
Ad09 is a fantastic tire for your use case, I used to run nankang ar1, now I run ado9 and it's a great tire.
For straight time-attack speed it's either the Yokohama A052 (for 1 lap) or the new RE71RS (for several laps).
82k on my 2020 and somehow still rocking the Yokohamas that came with it (just barely above wear bars now). I drive 120 mile round trips on the highway at least 3x per week and travel between 65-90mph. I've never had a single issue.
Had Geolandars and they were fun nice tires
I also replaced my stock Yokohama tires on my OBW with the new wildpeaks AT4w for stronger sidewall and been quite happy with its offroad performance.
I did some research before buying Sailun (race dragon) winter tires on the cheap. They were OK, but didn't last as long as other brands.
Yokohama sucks. There's a reason a lot of cars come with them. Cheap. Don't last.
