Tires YOKOHAMA or BFGoodrich

The KO2’s are what I’m running now. It’s a pretty legendary tire and has been around for decades now. They have good thread life, look aggressive, decently quiet on the road and do well in most off road situations except for thick mud since they aren’t, well, a mud tire.

I run the E-rated KO2's, have for the past three years. They aren't loud, ride smoother than the Geolander AT's that came on the truck, and balanced perfectly the first time through. People hate on the KO2's but I'm not sure why, it's an extremely solid, durable, race bred tire.

Ever since that, got some KO2s and can drive confidently in snow all day long.

I’ve used Yokohama before and they were great.

For what it's worth , I run the 245x40x18 BFGoodrich g-force on my GTI. They fit fine on the stock wheel, they don't rub, speedo is off by like 2mph.

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!

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.

Tires I went with BFGoodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S when I replaced the OEM rubber. They work very well in the dry and wet. I change to Blizzak's for winter time.

I went with the Yoko Geolanders. They are quieter than the Michelins that they replaced, but my gas mileage has dropped like 5%.

Flipped Yoko really sucks.
