Tires YOKOHAMA or Kumho

the Kumho TA51 (assuming TA51a as it is the current production) is a well reviewed and tested very low rolling resistance tire, thanks to a silica-enhanced tread compound. Most reviewers and owners over time generally note a small INCREASE in fuel economy of 1-3 MPG.

Yokohama Advan Fleva on 19” were suuuper quiet. Pilot Sports are way more noisy. Yokohama Advan Sport are noisy too. I really enjoyed the Flevas.

I had two sets of the Kumho Crugen HT51 SL. I liked both times and they lasted about 40,000 miles each. Seemed low but they're snow rated so I know those don't get as many miles because the rubber is softer. They handled great in snow/sleet/ice and enabled my front wheel drive van to go through lots of winter weather driving.

This last set (third owned) pissed me off though and barely made it 18,000 miles even with proper inflation and alignment.

I've worn out several sets of Yokes. Mine wear like butter and only last a few weekends, usually less than 100 runs. But the Yokes offer unparalleled grip of all the 200 tires I've run, especially when cold turn 1 and in cooler ambient temps.

Been running yokohama advan sports on my GTI for 3 years and they are solid for the money. They aren't as good as my Michelins but for daily driving you would never know. If you drive hard they will talk and are reliable about the break away point and don't do anything you don't expect which is what I want just can't cut a corner quite as good as my Mich on my R32.

I went with Kumho, competitive pricing and I’ve had them on a few years now and 30k miles. Still looking good

I’ve posted my fastest times with A052s and they lasted longer than all others except RS4s.

Those came on my truck when I bought it new. Very average tire that's not good for any nasty stuff.

I replaced mine with about the same amount of mileage, mine also had a decent bit left when I did. The reason I replaced them is the Crugen’s terrible rain performance. They hydroplaned when brand new and never a rain storm since did they stop.

Came from continentals to kumhos and the wet performance is noticeably worse.
