I've put Yokohama G015 all-terrains on Subaru AWD wagon for similar duties before.
The Advan A052 is the tire that most of the high power RS3/TTRS straight line dudes are moving to, that is fine on regular, dry roads but offers a better 60' than PS4S.
I loved the yoko ao52, im currently running the toyo rr (less grip but longer life).
I purchased four Yokohama Advan Sport A/S+ tires for my Mazda 6 this past February and have found the ride quality and noise mitigation to be a noticable upgrade over the OEM Dunlap tires.
I run Yoko Advan APex AD08Rs on the track and love them. Very sticky, very consistent, great track tires for wear and consistent performance. They last me about 14-18 track days (about a year of tracking for me).
On the street, they seem to work well, maybe a bit less grip than the OE tires when accelerating, but I don’t push it too hard on public roads so it’s tough to judge performance. They aren’t any noisier than the Continentals; if anything they might be a bit quieter.
Great set of tires, I have used multiple sets. Quiet on the road, works well in the wet, and works great for a lapping tire as well and a fraction of the price of its Michelin counterparts.
Just got rid of my Nittos for the Advans, so far a better tire. Best part is one of the few tires in the OE size that has a 25k mileage warranty.
From what I can gather, the 195/65 14 I have on there now are fairly stiff. Not as stiff as I'd like though. I still get a little plowing fron the front end on some onramps, but maybe a couple more PSI will help that. Of course, what I have to compare it to are a set of Falken Azenis, so really, there is no comparison.
A very poor tire, I think if you treat them as summer tires and put on winters or good all season + 3PMSF tires like Michelin Crossclimate 2s, you'll be much happier in the snow.
