Tires YOKOHAMA or Goodyear

Only after 3 months replaced with Yokohama Advan Sport A/S.

Current review on them is:

Dry pavement: A+ (I can take turns like a race driver on bare pavement and still feel safe)

Wet Pavement: B (Only problem I’ve had starting aggressively is on wet pavement with road markings on them, seems good on corners and doesn’t hydroplane on really wet pavement, but loses traction with hard braking on very wet pavement)

Roughish Roads: A- (my car has low clearance and low profile tires but got by easily on FS roads with medium rocks and being careful. It gets the minus because after driving 75 miles on semi rough FS roads and getting back to pavement, I pulled to the side of the highway and had a metal chunk lodge into the sidewall ruining the tire)

I went from some random tires (Achilles or something) to Yoko AD08rs and yeah those were amazing. So much better on Khanacross and back roads

After 2 weeks of looking and doing homework. Analysis paralysis? I bought Yokahama YK740 GTX. 225/50/17. So far I like them. I was also looking at the "Continental pro contact" as well but the Yokahama had better ratings. If your into that kinda thing. (I was). The wider tire looks kinda cool too.

I am now running 235/70R17 Yokohama GEOLANDAR A/T G015, gives the car almost 1" of lift, smooth and quiet on the freeway. They weigh 12# more than the stock 215/65R17 and make the car accelerate slower, but they are great on dirt roads.

Last winter I bought then (then brandnew) Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady tires. They are All-seasons, but have the snowflake on the mountain symbol. They did great in the Mid-Atlantic where we don't get more than 2 days of actual snow but a lot of cold rain, occasional sleet and slush. They did come in handy when we visited the in-laws in Erie PA while they got their 100" of snow at Christmas time.

I have 225s (Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice WRT) and one of mine tipped over while changing tires and it got a scuff on it. Would have been worse with 205s.

i have yokohama s drive on my 86. seem good for the cheap price

My trailer had some junk "D" load rated tires that I replaced with "E" load rated Goodyear's and I saw improvement in handling and fuel economy.

I have these on my JKU and they are OK. They do well on snow, but on wet roads they can break free pretty easily .

My experience with Goodyear is as an SA with BMW and VW. For a "high-quality" tire, they seemed to wear out fast and give unwanted vibrations sooner.
