Tires YOKOHAMA or MRF

Yoko fleva v701 just got them on this year. Before that prev owner had rt660s. I only drive in warm conditions but may get caught in a bit of rain where I live. Backroads mostly.

I got Yoko Fleva V701 in 205/40/17 since I have an MSM. For $100/tire installed it was hard to pass up.

I have a set on a Celica. Been driving in Melbourne weather and have yet to have a problem.

I would seriously consider the Yokohama Geolandar x-cv. I replaced the crap falkens around 31k miles, have about 22k on the yokos and they are fantastic. They also still look and drive new, probably will get 50-60k out of them. They ride very smooth

if you are looking for superior ride quality, Yokohoma does the job as well.

I have the Yoko geolandar g018 on my 22' in MT. I just switched to my winter studs for the ice on BZN pass, but otherwise the Yokohamas were doing great in the snow.

It's a well known website and has good reviews.

Last week I got a flat tyre on my back from the office and found that this tyre on my 2-month-old Suzuki Fronx (Aug 2025 model) is no more usable. Found a chipped off thread grip on the driver's side tyre, which resulted in low pressure. Due to driving at that pressure, the side liner developed cracks, losing its pressure holding capacity. Commonly, it is a clear case of prolonged low-pressure driving. However, in my case, since the tyre always looked low on pressure, I made sure to check the tyre pressure at every gas station while refueling. Now I am running on a spare tyre and wondering if I should go for the same tyre (MRF Wanderer 195/60 R16) or another brand.

I burst my Elevate tyre due to my mistake (side wall damage), only 3k KMs on the odometer. MRF rejected the claim but Honda provided new tyre for free as a part of goodwill warranty.

Same happened with my mrf ecotred just after 15000 km...got no claim... changed all 4 tyres to bridgestone coz safety is primary
