I have been using this tire on my Sienna for years and love it. It is quiet, lasts a long time, holds the road nicely, and provides good wet traction. Traction in the snow or ice is fine, although not great, but I’m using it on a 2WD minivan and didn’t expect much on the snow and ice.

So I put this particular tire; as a rear tire for my 2016 Ultra Limited. The first day anything over 80mph, caused a massive wobble. It’s calmed down a bunch now though; 2 months later.

Best winter traction all season tire I have ever used, even after putting 30,000 miles on them.

2007 Prius, replaced the front tires with the same type as on the rear. A bit louder than expected, though the car handles like it is on rails. Not much snow as yet (Dec, Chicago), looking forward to good performance there.

My previous tire were four Michelin Defenders. Compared to the Yokohama they were worse in every category. These Avid Ascend were noticeably quieter and had better handling. I noticed the car turned much more effortlessly on these than the Defenders and were smoother driving over rough pavement. The defenders also didn’t even last 40k miles and felt sluggish overall.I can’t comment about wet and snow because I live in Southern California, but if you are looking for dry climate tires, these are solid and perform well for average to spirited driving.I was considering Continental and Goodyear too, but these win out due to price. After install these were much more inexpensive, made in the USA, and the fact they had good record of durability according to reviews made them a easy choice.

This is the second set of these tires I’ve bought. First set went on an HHR and have held up great. They are also smooth riding, made in the USA, 70,000 mile tires. Have lasted better than the Michelins I had last time

I noticed that my car used about 15-20% less gas using these tires, without compromising the amount of grip or maneuverability of the car. I highly recommend these!

We have purchased 6 of these tires now and we really like them. The one thing that Im iffy on is their consistency. Some days they feel great and some days they feel flat. Both days they have equal tire pressure but its not enough to say I wouldnt purchase again. Just the way these tires are.

I installed these on a Honda Fit Sport. Very quite ride. We got 4 inches of snow the day after I put them on the car. I am the guy that plows the snow, so when I go into work, the roads aren’t plowed. These tires handled very well in the snow. When I ordered these, I couldn’t find a tread life warranty. It is 75,000 miles. I’m impressed! I’ve only had these tires on the car for 4 days now, so I cant rate longevity, but I do like them so far! …Ok, here is several months later. I’m in northern Illinois. So far this winter, we have received over 60″ of snow this season. Traction on these tires is amazing. Have not got stuck yet. Excellent ride on the interstate at 75 mph. Highly recommend these tires. Note – I used internal tire balancing beads in these tires, nice ride!

Great tire rides well and handles well on wet and slippery roads . Wearing even with not a lot of road noise . But next time I will be getting a little more aggressive tread for better traction in snow . Over all I am happy with the tire .

I have ridden motorcycles most of my life, owning usually multiple motorcycles at a time. My touring bike, a Honda Gold Wing there is nothing more bothersome or costly than having to have a tire replaced while traveling. In order to prevent such an occurrence, I utilize the use of an automobile tire on the rear of my motorcycle, which in the motorcycle world is known as going to the “Dark Side” and I also mount a motorcycle tire designed to be used on the rear-mounted on my front tire which is known as a “Double Darksider”. Why do I do this? Because I can easily get 40 to 50 thousand miles on each tire eliminating ever having to replace a motorcycle tire while on the road. I have been doing this for over twenty years with no problems what so ever. The handling characteristics are NOT changed or altered, the ride is actually smoother and the cornering ability is equally as good. Where the difference really comes in is in tire cost and longivity, which is unsurpassed.All of that being said, the Yokohama Avid Ascend Radial Tire in a 195/60R16 is an outstanding tire used on my Honda Gold Wing rear tire. Even in the rain, grip and handling is unsurpassed.

I needed a tire to match the others on my all wheel drive vehicle after the tires had been discontinued. The price was great and it worked out perfectly.

After 5 years on factory tires I needed a new set for my 2009 Honda Fit. Last winter I couldn’t even get out of my parking space when there was any amount of snow on the ground so I had to bite the bullet and buy a new set. Being that the Honda Fit has a very uncommon size of tire, I found that the cheapest thing to do was buy them online then take them somewhere to get mounted, rather than having a shop special order them for me. Once I got them installed, it was like night and day! They are very effective in the snow and rain (I live outside Chicago). Highly recommended.

Quiet on the highway, confident handling and super traction in heavy rain. I did a lot of research prior to purchase and it paid off – after 3 months of heavy use, I feel great about having chosen these tires.Update: one year later. Did I mention these tires are quiet – a year of hard driving and they’re still so quiet it’s actually spooky. We’ve driven on snow,, on ice, on murderous ice with cables, through torrents of rain pummeled by outrageous winds and, of course, traversed all kinds of dry road surfaces – complete perfection. They still corner like a dream and inspire confidence under all conditions. Simply the best tire I have ever owned and the best part is they show minimal wear after a year, no hardening, no oxidation. I highly recommend these tires for the 2008 Honda Odyssey.

We replaced the 2012 CRV factory ContiContacts with these Yokohamas. The improvement was immediate! Much quieter and far more solid feeling on the road. Handling improved enormously. This is a 4WD vehicle.We upsized by one, the car calls for 225s and we put on 235 (dropping one aspect)There was a bit of work at the beginning to get one wheel balanced, but they eventually figured it out. It only vibrated at 75-78 mph.I’ve had Yokohamas on several cars, and they’ve always been solid. These are also doing great.

Put 4 brand new Ascend’s on my 10 Honda Insight 3 weeks and 2k miles ago. Here are my thoughts:If you plan on driving over 60MPH in a hybrid or lightweight car in the midwest/windy/wet I would not suggest these tires.They are beyond squirmy, beyond hunting/drifting on the road. I drove 2k on these tires before begging for them to replace the tires.I commute 160 miles a day round trip on Highway and Interstate driving. Less than 2 miles of my drive consist of speeds below 40 MPH.My SO drove it and as a 15 year vet as a Sheriff Deputy said never before had he driven a vehicle he thought he was going to roll more than the day he drove mine. I likened the feeling as fishtailing but no reason to fishtail.Shop rechecked every last thing they could and nothing was mechanically wrong.We put on the Envigors that I previously had and not one single issue has recreated itself that I was having for the previous 3 weeks on the Ascends.Road noise is not noticeable. Ride was smooth. Bumps were not hurtful. Gas millage increased. I think though that may be because I could not get the courage to drive above 60 MPH where speed limits are posted at 75MPH. Just the fear of rolling or landing in the ditch while driving.

I’ve put about 7000 miles on these tires and they’ve performed great! Drove them all the way through Texas while it rained the whole time! No traction problems at all. They never pulled to the side when hitting puddles of standing water! They have wore very evenly. No real road noise to complain about! Very smooth riding and quite!

I bought these for my 2009 Honda Fit Sport..185x55x16..just installed today, balanced all 4 wheels and 4 wheel laser alignment. I knew the moment I hit the highway that I had a real Winner in this set of tires!! They are quiter ,grip the highway better and I believe the gas mileage is going to be 10-15% better.. This is my third set of tires on this vehicle with 74,000 miles..original set were Dunlap..lasted 25,000 miles..2nd set were Hankoop ventura..lasted 49,000 miles..I will say I am not right on top of the my game when it comes to inflation and rotation, but I will make a chart now to keep better track of my investment..I will update at 10,000 miles..

Have these on my 2010 Honda Insight and do not experience any problems with handling or vibrations at any speed. Great in the rain too. Now with about 40,000 miles (consistent balancing and rotation every 8000 miles) wear is very satisfactory. I am still very happy with the purchase.
