In August 2020, I had Yokohama Avid Ascend LX installed on the vehicle and I have to say that 2 months later that was the best decision I made to swap the OEM's off. My CRV came back to what it used to be and even better in the driving experience. The road behavior is great, breaking is solid and my gas mileage went way down. Wet driving feel really safe.
I replaced mine with Yokohama YK740 GTX's.
The accuracy improved after I installed new Yokohama 225/60/18 tires. With the stock Giti tires the speedo was showing 1-2mph over the actual speed which I believe was also affecting the MPG accuracy. The speedo is spot-on now with the new "60" series tires.
I’ve used Yokohama before and they were great.
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.
We tried a set on our HS Civic, then onto my codrivers CS NC. They're notably off pace from other 200tw (down in grip even to the RS-RR), but they wore like iron and communicated at the limit. Very solid for the money.
So the tires are beyond a success, better than I hoped. Twice I've taken the spot I referred to in another post (about the stock Kynergy's) where I turn right at a Stop and go up a slight grade and with any foot on the gas the car breaks away. In these tires, has not happened, even when I have tried to push it. And that AWD sensation continues to be active. I felt it twice this morning: I make a turn, the front end responds, and then the back just snap! (s) right into line. The car is so much more solid through turns than it was, and I would say it is in no way inferior to my old Juke!
I am currently running some Yokohama Avid H4s, I have not been very impressed with them dry road handleing is nice however, snow and water is another story. I only got close to 35k out of these tires and I am looking for something that handles the same if not better and will most importantly give me better tread wear.
I had Yokohama’s but I’m not sure if it was my car or the tires I got were defective they kept shaking over 70 miles . I got them re balanced twice and eventually gave up and got a new set
