Tires YOKOHAMA or Firestone

Yokohama is your best bang for the buck on the list. You are never going to be mad about going with the Michelins though.

I got 65k miles out of the Firestones that came stock on my Ram 2500. I was so pleased I bought the same tire at the dealership when it came time to replace.

I recommend the shit out of the Firestone Indy 500 they get up to the proper temp for that spirited drive quickly but don’t overheat and have very good wear from my experience.

I LOVE the Indy 500’s. They grip the road extremely well even in rain. It’s the only tire I put on my Mustang, past and present.

Wife's focus had the yokohoma blue earth gt, they provided good grip wet or dry....managed to outrun essex police with them on when it was stolen as well.

As far as tyres go, I swear by Yokohama’s.

They can be a little soft and they don’t last forever but I’ve never found the limit of grip and I have a highly modified car and drive like I stole it.

Up to you, but I wouldn't go high end on a C1. I wouldn't cheap out but go midrange. Something like Firestone MultiHawk 2s.

Cheap versus branded - branded will be better everytime. In a small car with little brakes you want the best contact possible.

I had my factory Firestone’s taken off at 35k and they probably still had another 5-10k mikes left in them.

Soooo yes and no. I live in Fairbanks, AK and they honestly did pretty decent for deep snow HOWEVER once it went -40°F and that snow slowly turned into hardpack I instantly swapped them out for Falken AT Trails. Although not as good as a dedicated winter tire they did WAYYYY better than the Avid GTs which almost lead me into a few close calls since THEY HAD ABSOLUTELY 0 TRACTION
