Tires YOKOHAMA or Firestone

Firestone Indy 500 tire? What level are you running at and on what car? What is your psi? It's a great novice (to intermediate-ish)tire, but you have to know when to back off. Run them too hot and they'll get a little greasy feeling. Although I can't see that happening after 1 lap.

My 2023 OB has 22k miles on the Avid GT’s and they are wearing very well in my opinion. I may replace them with the same tire when it becomes necessary. Also, ten inches of snow is no problem with these tires.

yokohama is better. i believe nankang is budget shit

I've had the Firestone Weathergrips on my Camry for 4+ years. Solid performance all around - better in snow than any all season tire I have used. Noise has gotten worse as they wear - there isn't any cupping or uneven wear - I think it is just the nature of the tire.

the fleva v701 is a much better tire but even then there are still better options

I had yokomaha parade spec 2's on a couple of cars and loved them, grip for days and decent in the wet, my favourite tyre ever

Get the Firestone All Seasons, or Firestone Wearhergrip All Weather tire. Both are excellent for snow, rain - any weather.

Firestone Destination AT2. Central Oregon driving in the deserts, highways, ice & snow while often pulling a travel trailer. “No regerts.”

I bought a set of Yokohamas once for our 07 Prius and noticed a very similar result as well. Tires were dead quiet though, but not worth the cost for us so we switched.

They are pretty good in dry weather, but absolutely terrible in snow. If you typically encounter snow, invest in snow tires.
