Sexymommymissesher97 Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Hay I need some help. Anybody have a legacy with the stock Yoko's ADVAN A82? Are they any good in snow, We are supposed to get some and I am not sure what to expect from these tires:( My old Legacy had the continental conti-extreme winter tires They were awsome nothing could slow me down but I could always stop!!

BrownBoy Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I believe they are the Forester's Yok. Geolander's rebadged. You could also look them up on Tirerack.com to see how they are rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexymommymissesher97 Posted February 10, 2006 Author Share Posted February 10, 2006 I tried tirerack no reviews for those tires. They are grand touring tires all-season Well see Huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waxiboy Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 i don't think they are going to be any better than the RE92s. OEM is OEM, cheapo tires=more profit. btw, welcome to the boards sexy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenonk Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Since you drive harder than most, you might want to get some Michelin Pilot Exaltos A/S for yourself.. they definitely a good upgrade for the people like us that live in Maryland area. Tire Rack sells them, you can read up on them. Keefe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWD-Turbo Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 Mine came with Yokohama ADVAN A048s – really bad in the snow. Some kid back in town traded me his re92s for them straight up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexymommymissesher97 Posted February 16, 2006 Author Share Posted February 16, 2006 Well I got to find out how the tires handled in snow! Great we had 15" in MD over the weekend went out did many controlled tight doughnuts,Busted out of my driveway and parking spot with no shoveling 10-13" NO problem. Tires did a Awsome job I stopped no trouble besides theABS acting like crap. The car slide because ABS locked up I hate ABS "ALL DOWN FOR NO ABS SAY I".

That's the point isn't it.... How can ABS cause you to slide?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Condor Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 "My old Legacy had the continental conti-extreme winter tires They were awsome nothing could slow me down but I could always stop!!" Are you serious?? I had those for about 20k miles and let me just say I would never recommend them. Granted they are decent in the snow and rain but dry traction is HORRIBLE.... RE92's are better on the street in my opinion.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Condor Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 PS - I'm not saying the RE92's are good but better than the Conti Extremes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
