Tires YOKOHAMA or Barum

I got the Geolanders literally 48 hours ago - got back from my first adventure with them about 15 minutes ago, handled amazing in dirt, deep mud and snow - haven’t had them long enough to recommend them one way or another but no initial complaints

Geolanders for sure. I have them on mine and they handle better than I could have hoped.

i loved the yok ao52 but i hear the nangkang crs are even better and cheaper

I have had the yokohama advan decibels which are specially designed to run quiet, they're pretty good but sacrifice some traction.

Running on Yokohama Advan Apex V601, instant favorite of mine now, way better than the PS4's

Now have the Yokohama Geolanders and certainly believe they're a better tire.

2012 MK6 GTI: Continental ExtremeContact Sport - Replaced with Continental Control Contact Sport SRS+ - Replaced with Yokohama Advan Apex (Best summer tire other than PS4S)

We went with Yokohama AVID Ascend GTs as replacement. They're 5 year 65K warranty tires.

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.

I was not a fan of these tires in the snow. Never seemed to have an issue getting the car going, but did have the car oversteer and slide in the snow a few times.
