    Not for motorcycles.

    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.

    So far it has been a good ride. Handles well are wet roads

    I just had my tires put on 3 days ago. So far it has been a good ride. Handles well are wet roads. I do a lot of highway driving and so far I’m satisfied

    We’ll made tire!

    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!

    Smooth riding tire

    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 .

    Good

    It fits really nicely. Pretty good quality if you don’t wanna pay too much for wheels.

    Nice Ride!!

    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!

    Nice tires for the Honda CRV.

    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.

    Highly recommended for an 08 Ody

    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.

    high quality tire

    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.

    Buy it. These tires are quiet and reliable.

    So far so good.

    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.

    Darkside Rider

    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.

    Made in the USA 70,000 mile tires

    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

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

    Great for Gas Consumption

    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!
