I’ve been running a set of Yokohama Geolandar A/T G015 in factory dimensions year round on my 3.6. They perform pretty damn well in the snow, great in the rain, awesome off road, and they’re quiet.

Pros: great in rain, awesome offroad
Cons: not as good as Blizzaks

Only after 3 months replaced with Yokohama Advan Sport A/S.

Current review on them is:

Dry pavement: A+ (I can take turns like a race driver on bare pavement and still feel safe)

Wet Pavement: B (Only problem I’ve had starting aggressively is on wet pavement with road markings on them, seems good on corners and doesn’t hydroplane on really wet pavement, but loses traction with hard braking on very wet pavement)

Roughish Roads: A- (my car has low clearance and low profile tires but got by easily on FS roads with medium rocks and being careful. It gets the minus because after driving 75 miles on semi rough FS roads and getting back to pavement, I pulled to the side of the highway and had a metal chunk lodge into the sidewall ruining the tire)

Pros: safe on dry pavement
Cons: metal chunk in sidewall

YOKOHAMA Tires

After 2 weeks of looking and doing homework. Analysis paralysis? I bought Yokahama YK740 GTX. 225/50/17. So far I like them. I was also looking at the "Continental pro contact" as well but the Yokahama had better ratings. If your into that kinda thing. (I was). The wider tire looks kinda cool too.

Pros: better ratings, looks cool

I am now running 235/70R17 Yokohama GEOLANDAR A/T G015, gives the car almost 1" of lift, smooth and quiet on the freeway. They weigh 12# more than the stock 215/65R17 and make the car accelerate slower, but they are great on dirt roads.

Pros: smooth and quiet, great on dirt roads
Cons: accelerate slower, weigh 12# more

My all-season tires however, and worn for the path. They are still drivable, but I will definitely be replacing tires before winter.

Pros: still drivable
Cons: worn for the path
Part number: AVS DB S2

I wouldn't recommend Achilles tires in general. The bare tire (unmounted) flat-spotted under its own weight.

Cons: flat-spotted under weight
