Rating 5.0

In August 2020, I had Yokohama Avid Ascend LX installed on the vehicle and I have to say that 2 months later that was the best decision I made to swap the OEM's off. My CRV came back to what it used to be and even better in the driving experience. The road behavior is great, breaking is solid and my gas mileage went way down. Wet driving feel really safe.

Pros: great road behavior, safe
Vehicle: Honda
Mileage: 47000 km

I have been riding on them for about 11,000 miles. 2018 GSW SE. Excellent tires so far. Properly inflated, not loud at all but do have a low grumble that is not bad. Fantastic wet tire. They remain planted in the rain and give good secure ride. Ride more like summer tires on dry pavement, cold or warm weather. Great ride I am in Wisconsin and they are superior to all seasons in snow, although nothing compares to true "snow" tires. I've driven in some pretty good storms and they are definitely sufficient for most conditions. Will slip in snow a bit here and there, but give plenty of traction for acceleration and braking. Ice... be careful, regardless, and these are not studded tires. I highly recommend them for all season driving, including right through the snow.

Pros: fantastic wet tire, good secure ride
Cons: slight slip in snow, low grumble
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 11000 km

Picked up a screw in my rear tire yesterday on the stock tires. Figure I'll just replace the set. I've been getting a bunch of recommendations on Michelin Road 5 Tires.

Pros: recommendations on Michelin tires

I've had the GTI nearly 5 years now, and the mod list has been fairly simple: Different OEM wheels with Michelin AS/3+ tires + spacers to make them fit the way they should have stock JB1 piggyback module to give the car the in-gear passing power it should have had stock OEM Clubsport S rear exhaust to make it sound a bit more like a GTI, not an anonymous econobox Driver Gear springs to reduce the +10mm ride height from stock that the DCC equipped cars have All LED exterior light conversion so it doesn't look like it's from 2007 A bunch of VCDS tweaks to enable features the car should have had from the factory (comfort open/close on the windows, for instance) None of this dramatically changes the character of the car, and nothing I've done was terribly expensive; but it has made it more the car I wanted it to be stock.

Pros: made it more wanted
Cons: nothing terribly expensive
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I went with 205/50R-17 Michelin X-Ice Xi3 SL (from original 225 on 18\") for winter driving on my GTI. Motivation was keeping circumference the same. Have been happy with Michlins in North East.

Pros: happy with performance

We have Yokohama Avid Ascend's and they are wearing like a pigs nose. Probably 30K on them now and they are rated at either 70 or 80K life. I easily see us getting 70K from them. 41 psi and proper rotation.

Pros: easily see 70k life
Cons: wearing like a pigs nose
