Tires YOKOHAMA or LASSA

I had the Geolandars on my 4wd Tacoma when I lived in Alaska. I never got snow tires during winter because I thought I’d be good enough with the Geos. They worked well enough for me, although a couple of times I did slip. Nothing major. I just ended up using my brakes further away from my intended stopping point. In the rain they worked great, never had an issue. Versatile tire without the price point of BFG. Also, the ride on dry highways wasn’t loud and obnoxious, smooth ride imo.

Blizzaks are probably the best but I've heard they can wear fast. The Yokohama iceguard worked well for me as well.

Yoko N905 served me wonderfully in the Italian alps. Have a small fwd turbo A1. Got up some mountain passes where big 4x4s struggled without chains

Have a 2022 Outback and the oem Yokohama tires were junk after 37k. Went with Yokohama avid ascend. Grips great in pouring rain, very quiet even with a window partially open and no noise interference on Bluetooth.

I have always found Yokohamas to be good. I find the A drive to be good grip, very durable and reasonably priced.

I've put Yokohama G015 all-terrains on Subaru AWD wagon for similar duties before.

The Advan A052 is the tire that most of the high power RS3/TTRS straight line dudes are moving to, that is fine on regular, dry roads but offers a better 60' than PS4S.

I loved the yoko ao52, im currently running the toyo rr (less grip but longer life).

From what I can gather, the 195/65 14 I have on there now are fairly stiff. Not as stiff as I'd like though. I still get a little plowing fron the front end on some onramps, but maybe a couple more PSI will help that. Of course, what I have to compare it to are a set of Falken Azenis, so really, there is no comparison.

I found them to be pretty garbage for traction even on dry pavement, but they were quiet and smooth and lasted very well.
