Hi any folk out here use or try Yokohama Advan ST before? or can recommend me a performance SUV tyre? preferbly fit 225/60/18 thanks

Take a look at Toyo Proxies S/T. Great on dry and wet condition. Very quiet as well. Durability not sure yet since I have it on my SUV for just about 10K only. It costs about the same as YoKo Advan S/T @ S$260 (225/65R18)

MAybe you can try Hankook RH06 235/55R18? Very nice thread...

[Crv007]

k thanks for recommendation. will take a look just very itchy to change my tyre, dun really like stock one :p BTW what SUV you driving?

[Chimp]

Mine is a Nissan 2.5l Murano. Stock tyre was Dunlop Grandtrek ST20 225/65R18. Not a very good tyre when wet. Got tyre spin when wet after 20k already...

i am on yoko geolander ht....used to be on hankook.....yoko geolander ht is much better hankook.....did not skid as much.....i can't use advan st bec my rims are only 16 inch.....need at least 17 inch.......but if you got recommendation of better tyre than yoko goelander....pls tell me.....

[Chimp]

Will Yoko geolander be more suitable for a mixture of city and off-road driving? For my Murano, it is a crossover and not a real 4WD SUV. Both my stock Dunlop and current Toyo Proxies ST are more suitable for city driving.

I also using Geolander OEM from Mitsubishi. No bad wor for both wet and dry i;m supprised. According to my friend Advan ST is noisy.

 

SO my next tyre will be comfort based. So is GR80 or A-drive or C-drive or MXV8 if they have it in 17"

[Chimp]

For comfort, you should take a look at Toyo Proxies ST also. I am quite happy with the performance of this tyre on wet and dry condition.

[Crv007]

I am looking as my stock Dunlop sometimes feel slippery leh... :p

[Crv007]

I am actually looking for performance urban driving tyres as it is own only contact with the road dun mind spending.

 

ha ha yes my CRV also ONLY URBAN useage

[Mustank]

235 70 16 and

Can also consider Michelin 4x4 Diamaris. My friend's X5 uses this tyre.

255/55/18 can fit my car?? think 255 too big for my stock rims

[Kopio2]

current ride on Michelin Diamaris 235/65/17 with 24k on it.

Dry and wet is good but getting noisy after >20k.

 

If the tires are wet and going into multistorey carpark w/cement flooring, you've to watch out for possible front tires skid at 90
