Smooth, quiet ride.
They balanced easily during installation. They have a smooth, quiet ride. Haven't had them long enough to judge tread wear
or winter traction.

I love these tires.
I've heard people rating other tires higher than them and I've never tried them, but I'm completely satisfied with the deal SimpleTire gave me. The traction is excellent. The noise is very quiet. The tread seems durable, and I'll be back when I need new tires.

Shortened life
The previous model gave me triple the life of the current model, Can you revert to the old compound? Other wise it is a great tire for the price point. I now have them on two vehicles, and am looking forward to exercising the mileage warranty again.

These tires last me at least 40,000 miles. I always recommend Simpletire to everyone I meet who mentions needing new tires. My husband is in the Army and I got him hooked after he bought a new set for his Tacoma and he spreads the word to his Joes like it's gospel. That military discount is a godsend. Thank you, Simpletire!!

Good basic tire
I've had these tires on now for a few years and tread life is excellent. Noise level is acceptable...I have never really noticed that they are exceptionally noisy or quiet. I have them on a 2012 Honda Pilot. Seems to handle fairly well. I feel confident with them at highway speeds.

Maybe I got a bad set of 4 tires but, the tread life is junk on these. I wonder if the people rating this 5stars on tread life actually know the mileage?
Installed Oct '19, tread hit warranty limit by Jul '21. Only got 12,000 miles out of these tires. Probably get 20,000 miles if I drove them bald. Vehicle - 2006 Toyota Sienna, Normal driving conditions.

One of the 4 tires arrived damaged so check them before they are installed to save yourself time in getting it replaced.

Tread is designed to give drivers more biting edges on wet and wintery roads for added grip
Whether taking the kids to school or simply commuting to work, drivers crave a tire that performs year-round for their sedan, CUV, or minivan. Yokohama's Avid Ascend is an all-season touring tire that's designed to give these drivers that year-round performance along with a comfortable ride. The tread pattern is designed to reduce road noises for a quiet, comfortable ride, while sipes within the Avid Ascend's tread provide extra grip on wet and wintery roads. The Avid Ascend is designed to help reduce fuel consumption so that drivers can spend less time and money at the pumps, and more time on the roads.
