Tires YOKOHAMA or Achilles

YOKOHAMA Tires

I've found Yokohama AD08R's were pretty good on my track car, like you I drive to trackdays and these seemed very good in the dry but also good enough on the road on a damp day!

Pros: good in the dry, good enough on road

If longevity is more important than top performance, then I highly recommend Yokohama Ascends. We have almost 200k on our CC and mostly used Conti's with some others along the way. These Yokohamas are awesome and wear ridiculously well! We are in FL so lots of rain in the summer.

Pros: awesome, wear ridiculously well
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 200000 km

Achilles Tires

I just got Achilles atr sport 2's. They are summer tires, and I got a staggered set of 4 for 19" wheels for less than $300 shipped. The dry grip is excellent I'm very happy with them, great value.

Pros: excellent dry grip, great value
Vehicle: Nissan

So the tires are beyond a success, better than I hoped. Twice I've taken the spot I referred to in another post (about the stock Kynergy's) where I turn right at a Stop and go up a slight grade and with any foot on the gas the car breaks away. In these tires, has not happened, even when I have tried to push it. And that AWD sensation continues to be active. I felt it twice this morning: I make a turn, the front end responds, and then the back just snap! (s) right into line. The car is so much more solid through turns than it was, and I would say it is in no way inferior to my old Juke!

Pros: better than hoped, more solid

I just picked up a set of Yokohama Avids from Tire Rack mounted to Sparco Terras. Look great, quiet tires with excellent light snow traction.

Pros: quiet tires, great look

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

Yokohama avid ascend GTs. Get them on tire rack and have a trusted local shop instal them. I had Michelin pilot sports on my mk6 from Costco and these are better and cheaper. They’re also fantastic in the rain.

Pros: better and cheaper, fantastic in rain

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.

Pros: fairly stiff
Cons: little plowing
