Yokohama Avid Ascend GT.

Here are some excerpts from reviews:

(1) [https://www.tiredeets.com/yokohama-avid-ascend-gt-review/](https://www.tiredeets.com/yokohama-avid-ascend-gt-review/)

"How is it over wet and slippery roads? As far as the Avid Ascend GT is good on dry tarmac, it might be even better on wet and slippery roads. Relatively, of course. I find the Yokohama to be outstandingly good in resisting hydroplaning – the car remains controllable even in puddles of water. Also, the advanced tread compound pays dividends on damp surfaces, where the Avid Ascend GT holds itself extremely well. Overall, this is one of the safest and easiest grand-touring tires to drive in the rain. . . .

"Is it comfortable and refined? You bet it is! This is one of the quietest tires I’ve tried recently, improving the refinement of almost any vehicle you put it on. That’s true even at very high speeds, and for cars that don’t have that much noise insulation. On top of that, the ride quality with a set of Avid Ascend GT tires will be sublime. Smaller imperfections on the road are almost completely eaten by the Yokohama, while the larger potholes are tempered with aplomb. This is perhaps the biggest reason why you would opt for a set of these tires – they are outstandingly comfortable over any surface you encounter."

Pros: resists hydroplaning, comfortable ride

Overall the Outback performed better than I expected with 4 occupants and a trailer, however I wouldn’t want to tow any more then 1500 pounds for the distance I traveled. Acceleration was obviously impacted but not as much as I feared, the 2.5i does have enough power for the load I was putting it under. At really high elevations and fairly steep grades I did have to decrease my speed to keep my RPM’s down

Pros: enough power for load
Cons: acceleration was impacted

thanks for the tip, will keep these in mind. my original hankook tyres and 19" were giving such harsh ride I've [downsized to 18" with Yokohama All Terrain](https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModelY/comments/15fb1m8/downsized_tyres/), but now I'm thinking of giving these a go on my 19" original alloy too for summer perhaps!

Pros: harsh ride improved

Anyway, on my 2022 Elantra Hybrid Limited, I replaced the stock wheels and tires with 15" aluminum wheels and Yokohama Avid Ascend GT 195/65R15 to improve ride quality and durability (pothole resistance).

Pros: improve ride quality, durability

Im using Yokohama Geolander A/T 015 rightnnow and they're pretty good at taking small bumps, providing a good ride and maintaining bettee than average grip at turning. Was a good ride.

Road noise isn't bad.

Pros: good ride, better grip
Cons: slight road noise

My buddy has P Zero Winter on his S4

and he likes them. I have Yokohama BluEarth Winter V905 and they are nice but the sidewall is not as stiff as the Pirellis. Still happy with them though.

Pros: nice, happy with them
Cons: sidewall not stiff
Vehicle: Audi S4

We have Yokohama Avid Ascend's and they are wearing like a pigs nose. Probably 30K on them now and they are rated at either 70 or 80K life. I easily see us getting 70K from them. 41 psi and proper rotation.

Pros: easily see 70k life
Cons: wearing like a pigs nose
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 30000 km
