Tires YOKOHAMA or Continental

If you’re gonna go to discount, I run the Yokohamas on just about everything. The yk gtx is really good, I live in DFW area. Had those on for all the “snow storms” we’ve had and no issues. They also do great in the rain.

I have a set of Yokohama S drives on my Swift 2005. They are serving me well, good dry as well as wet grip.

UC6 is by far the best I’ve experienced when compared to Michelin XM1 , CEAT and JKTyres, Continentals are just smooth throughout

Yeh the UC6 is amazing. My car came with ceat securadrive. It got a sidewall bubble at 22k. Changed to UC6 and the change was mind-blowing. Just yesterday I was driving in the rain at 60-70 not breaking a sweat. Also got turtle wax clearvue rain coating. Can't recommend these enough. Tried to get conti for WagonR and Ignis as well but weren't in stock at my preferred shop, so went with Bridgestone sturdo, they're also good for the price.

The Brezza came with Apollo Alnac 4G tires from the factory. Apollo's were a good set of tires; they had decent grip, road noise wasn't bad, and even at 49,000 kilometers, they had about 5,000 kilometers left. Anyway, I decided to change them since I could see hairline cracks appearing, plus monsoon season here in Kerala means it's better to have a good pair of tires.

Long story short, after extensive research, I got Continental UC6 215/60-16 tires. I paid a total of 34,800 rupees, including four tires, balancing, alignment, and valves. The tires were 8,150 rupees each. I didn't feel a lot of difference in the first 150 kilometers, but after that, I noticed some major differences compared to the Apollos.

* Road trip: These tires stick to the road like leeches. Wet grip is unbelievably good. You can take a turn at 90 kmph on wet highways, and the car won't break a sweat. I never had that kind of confidence before.

* Braking: Stopping power has improved significantly. Both wet and dry grip are excellent.

* Ride quality: Improved by leaps and bounds. Small imperfections on the road are dismissed. Expansion joints on the highways are hardly felt in the cabin.

* Road noise : These tires are silent. At 120 kmph, all you hear is wind and engine noise. 0 noise from the tires. Apollo's use to get loud post 90kmph.

If you are looking for a tire change, i highly recommend Continentals. You would hardly pay 10-15% more then Indian tires but the benefits are significant .

Tengo cuatro Yoko en mí Focus, aunque en rodado 17". Pero antes en el Fiesta tuve dos juegos de Yokohama, así que puedo decirte con seguridad que son excelentes cubiertas.

Lo vas a notar sobre todo en piso mojado...

Muy buenas , tuve 4 en otro auto y le hice algo de 78.000 km , las cambie porque se habían resecado, pero todavía estaban 1mm más o menos arriba de la marca .

Tengo los ES BluEarth y son la mejor compra q le hice al auto

... Continentals ... incredible to 50% tread wear in my experience ... then not so incredible even with 5-6,000 mile balance/rotations.

Yeah, the OEM Avid GT tires are pretty generic. I have them on my 21 Outback. They don't have a lot of tread life. I'm getting close to 36k mark and they are due for replacement.
