Suggestions for new tires - Toyota Yaris Forums

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, appreciate the input.

I'm not planning on racing otherwise I might go with some of the more sticky tires; I'm moreso looking for something that I'll be able to get some decent longevity out of while making my drives around the area and the local mountains more fun.

Now I'm considering either the Yokohama S. Drives or the Dunlop Star Specs. The Dunlops look a bit pricier than Yokohama, if they aren't too big of an upgrade up from the Yokohama's I'll probly go w/ the S. Drives.

I'm riding a pair of 2½ year rundown stock tires (Potenza) & a pair of cheap Tigerpaw tires so whatever the choice its sure to be a big difference.

If your stock potenzas lasted 2.5 years, longevity isn't really an issue for your driving style, and any of the tires suggested here will make twisties more fun.
