I'm about to replace my tires, and i'm debating between two different tires at the moment. I've got BF Goodrich Traction T/A's on the car now, but I'm contemplating a set of Yokohama AVID V4S tires this time around. With the T/A's, I liked the wet weather/winter traction, but they have been noisy and they haven't worn as even as I'd hoped... Anyone have experience with the Yokohamas at all?

I'd just like to mention that you want to look for tires that would suit your driving style. I just check your profile Saleeka, and I noticed that your Celica is your Daily Driver? Correct me if I'm wrong on that haha. But for a daily driving tire application I would look for a harder compound tire that will last you quite some time along with something that is good for all weather situations. I have ran Khumos on my Celica for the all season application and I went a little more pricey with my performance Falkens, but I have also ran the Falken Ziex ZE912s on my Daily Driver Civic, and those tires have withstood SOO much with my driving style and you can BARELY tell they have 45K on them. They are amazing in the snow, and even better in the rain. Not too noisy and have a great feel. Happy Tire Shopping!
