Success! Staggered with Yokohama Advan Sport A/S on the front, Achilles ATR Sport on the back. Fr: 245/45R18 Rr: 275/40R18\u200b Looks great, no fitment/backspace issues, runs great. Can definitely feel a much tighter back end on turns. On some new black top on 422, did some hard insane lane changes at 75 mph and the back end just snapped into place. Funny how theory actually works out. And, of course, the Yokohama's provide much more glue than the Hankook Kynergys. Feels noticably more solid on the road.

Pros: tighter back end, more solid

I'm going with 245/45R18s in the front, and 275/40R18s in the back (a poor man's AWD hack). The 245s are going to be Yokohama Advan Sport A/S . I found multiple solid reviews, and the AS[SUP]2[/SUP] (s) are supposedly comparable to the holy PilotSports. Great traction, with sidewall technology for quieting. In theory, these should feel like glue compared to the Kinergy GTs.

Pros: Great traction, sidewall technology

I haven’t looked at the Goodyear data myself, but I have spoken to people at Calspan, and I’ve been told that the Goodyear mu is “10% higher than the Hoosier stuff”.

Pros: Goodyear mu higher

MICHELIN Tires

I just got the Michelin Pilot Sport AS 3+ for my P3D 20" wheels from Costco for just over $1000 installed, I'm sure the 18"s are less. I spent last holiday weekend driving in snow in the Sierras (norcal). The tires were great on the surfaces and snow conditions encountered.

Pros: great on snow

Nokian WRG4 are maybe the only serious competitor to the CrossClimate in that “all weather” category. I just put them on my S and they are nice and quiet and they are a low rolling resistance tire.

Pros: nice, quiet
Cons: low rolling resistance

FEDERAL Tires

Federals are good but if you are daily driving you will hate how much noise those bastards make, really really fast.

Pros: good performance
Cons: very noisy

NITTO Tires

Neo Gens are just that bad. I have a pair on the back of my wagon and they make the front kumho le sports feel like track rubber. Instant oversteer on demand especially in the wet.

Pros: instant oversteer on demand
Cons: just that bad
