I have bought from simple tire several times now and have been very satisfied especially with the speedy delivery.
Great tires at a great price (in my opinion). Have had them on for about 1,000 miles so far. They feel great on my car when it comes to anything really. I transitioned from Good year Assurance tires and these definitely feel like an upgrade. Grips the streets fairly well on hard turns and when speeding. Have not driven during rain or winter so I can't speak on that. Another thing, my hybrid has not experienced much difference in mpg since I had these installed. Still get good mpg probably some miles less than it would with an LRR tire.
I saw they were rated #1 for my car & I'm even more impressed after a year now GREAT TIRES along with great service from Simpletire!!!
So far I love these tires. They handle all conditions well thus far. Lots of rain, ice and snow where I live. Time will tell how they hold up tread wise on my awd Sienna.
These tires grip in rain and snow better than any tire I've ever owned. No worries whatsoever when driving in bad weather conditions. They have a little more tread noise on dry pavement but ride smoother than the previous set of Cooper tires that I had on my 04 Bonneville SLE. Overall I rate them a solid 4 out of 5 and if I get as many miles out of these Yokohama tires as I did with the Cooper tires I'd go to a 4.5 out of 5.
No complaints about the tires and have put on about 2500 miles so far. They handle fine. On my audi A4 awd. Happy with my purchase would buy again.
I have about 2000 miles on these tires and absolutely love them. Superior ride and handling especially in wet weather, best tires for wet roads I have ever had. We had a slushy snow recently and they were very good in that as well, can't say about snow accumulations of more than 2 inches as have not seen that yet. Well worth the $$!! If you are familiar with THE TIRE RACK they tested these tires against Continental, Michelin, and a Goodyear. They said the YOKOHAMA AVID ASCEND G/T "has set a new standard for wet weather handling and traction."
Had short time but they are great
Very nice for the price. Several online places have rated these near the top, especially for the money. Much better grip and less noise than my factory tires. Time will tell as far as wear, but I expect them to last at least 50k
Get technical:
An all-season tire, the Avid Ascend GT is designed for use on performance cars, sedans, CUVs, and minivans, and offers drivers a shorter braking distance in the rain and snow in addition to an up to 65,000 mile limited tread life warranty.
Features & Benefits
- All-season tread
- Black sidewall
- 65,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty for Non-staggered fitments and Front Position tires used in staggered fitments, and 32,5000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty for Rear Positions tires used in staged fitment applications.
- Special rubber compound in the tire's tread creates excellent grip on wet and snowy roads
Driving to and from work can be a tedious task but commuting in the rain or snow tends to make this endeavor far more difficult. Fortunately, the Avid Ascend GT from Yokohama is designed to give drivers of performance cars, sedans, CUVs, and minivans excellent all-season performance along with shorter braking distances in the rain and snow to help make the daily commute a bit better. A notched block tread design along with hundreds of 3D sipes gives the Avid Ascend GT extra grip, especially on snowy roads, while the rest of the tread helps to reduce road noises for a quiet, comfortable ride. An all-new TriBlend rubber compound boosts wet braking so that drivers can stop shorter on rain and snow-covered roads, while the tire's contact patch puts more rubber on the road for added grip and to ensure that the Avid Ascend GT has a long lifespan.

Have a question about Yokohama Avid Ascend GT tires?
No, Yokohama Avid Ascend GT tires are not directional. The Avid Ascend GT utilizes an asymmetric tread pattern.
Yes, the Yokohama Avid Ascend GT tire is good in light snow thanks to an all-season rubber compound, dense siping, and wide grooves. The Avid Ascend GT is not Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certified, so it should not be used in severe winter weather conditions.
