We've owned a 2018 Tig for ~3 years and would buy again. Reliability at 60k miles has been fairly solid. We did have a problem with the fuel injector harness at 50k miles and it was replaced under warranty. No other issues. The 8 speed transmission is agreeable, no complaints. As well documented elsewhere, it is not one of the fastest compact SUVs, and the engine when pushed hard sounds more like a tractor than a sports car. The total car though is better than its rivals for us. We are running Yokohama Parada Spec-X tires which sharpened up the handling, and it already was competitive in that area. With good handling, steering and visibility, the Tig is not just competent, but even a little fun to drive in its own right. Ours is the R Line SEL Premium. The adaptive LED headlights on this trim level are good. The interior is a pleasant place to be, and materials have all held up well.
I have yoko on mine. Good tires.
I’m on my 2nd set of Yokohama Advans for my 16GT. Longest lived tires (60k miles +) I’m willing to live with ever.
I would go with BF Goodrich KO2s, Falken AT3Ws, Or Yokohama. DO NOT get Goodyears or Mikey Thompsons, Goodyears are about the only tire I commonly replace new, customer buys them, hates them, comes back a week later and replaces them, and Mikey Thompsons, only thing I commonly put them on are people that don’t care about ride quality (People with “Built” Jeep wranglers that are mall crawlers, like they only did exterior mods). The tires I suggested will be on the pricier side but not too bad, they will all last you much longer then cheaper tires would
Just changed these out in my 2017! 67k miles. I really liked them, but they were unavailable at discount tire so now I’ve got Yokohama somethings.
Yokohama ADVAN Sport A/S actually is quite value for money so to speak.
For road tires I have Yokohama Avid GT on my Impreza and I’ve been very happy with them in the wet and light snow that we get in Memphis (they are a snowflake rated tire).
If you are shopping the 235/65 17 size you can get Yokohama g015 for 160 each. They are great tires loved them on my tacoma. Now I have wrangler AT Kevlar not as good imho
I’ve only had snows on my Crosstreks, but have driven on snow with stock tires with a friends Crosstrek. I live in an area that gets about 220 inches of snow a year, plus shoulder seasons of slush and ice. This is how I’d rank them-
Better- Crosstrek on stock- ok
2021 Outback XT and my Yokohama tires drive on snow like it's concrete.
