Tires YOKOHAMA or SUNNY
I bought Yokohama yk gtx from Discoumt tire. I have about 5k on them and they’ve been excellent so far.
I would recommend Firestone Destinations or Yokohama Geolandars. I’ve seen them go pretty well.
And I will tell you that, for my money, Yokohama are great tires.
I’ve come to like Yokohama tires enough I’d take them over continental tires any day.
Once my Yokohama geo lander tires are done I’m sticking to them for my 23 fozzy wilderness
Eu am cauciucuri sunny, un set de vara și un set de iarna! Am fost multumit de cele de iarna si automat nu am mai cumparat de vara decat de la marca asta chinezească!Sunt mulțumit!
Yokohama Avid Ascend GT.
Here are some excerpts from reviews:

"How is it over wet and slippery roads? As far as the Avid Ascend GT is good on dry tarmac, it might be even better on wet and slippery roads. Relatively, of course. I find the Yokohama to be outstandingly good in resisting hydroplaning – the car remains controllable even in puddles of water. Also, the advanced tread compound pays dividends on damp surfaces, where the Avid Ascend GT holds itself extremely well. Overall, this is one of the safest and easiest grand-touring tires to drive in the rain. . . .
"Is it comfortable and refined? You bet it is! This is one of the quietest tires I’ve tried recently, improving the refinement of almost any vehicle you put it on. That’s true even at very high speeds, and for cars that don’t have that much noise insulation. On top of that, the ride quality with a set of Avid Ascend GT tires will be sublime. Smaller imperfections on the road are almost completely eaten by the Yokohama, while the larger potholes are tempered with aplomb. This is perhaps the biggest reason why you would opt for a set of these tires – they are outstandingly comfortable over any surface you encounter."
Overall the Outback performed better than I expected with 4 occupants and a trailer, however I wouldn’t want to tow any more then 1500 pounds for the distance I traveled. Acceleration was obviously impacted but not as much as I feared, the 2.5i does have enough power for the load I was putting it under. At really high elevations and fairly steep grades I did have to decrease my speed to keep my RPM’s down
I went with the Yoko Geolanders. They are quieter than the Michelins that they replaced, but my gas mileage has dropped like 5%.
BEWARE: Failed Yokohama Stock Tire. Ive seen other posts about similar blowouts from primes but didn't pay too much attention since I planned on eventually switching wheels anyways. but this just happened driving 70 on the freeway. They are the stock Yokohama's that came with my 22 Prime.
