2022 Subaru Forester Tires

I’m a first-time buyer of Toyos at all and pleasantly impressed with their performance on the wet road. I didn’t experience any hydroplaning even in heavy rain! They are completely silent on the highways, but I didn’t expect they would. These are all-terrains though.

I was on the fence to jump in for the off road type of tire. We do most of our driving on bitumen. However, this tire is sold as off road and also as a decent all season tire too. We took a risk and bought it just before we went on a four week fall trip to Colorado with intent to do some mountain off-roading. I expected some road noise and lower mileage on highway with such aggressive tires... I have to report with grin that our ride is as quiet and as efficient on 225/55R18 size as it ever was. So far, we have driven total of 5000 miles with few hundred miles at temperatures in the upper 90s and about 2000 miles above 80. Tires still look and drive like new. We did several off road drives too adding up to few hundreds of miles. Tires grip off-road much better than regular all season radials we used before, and they do not show any damage from sharp stones they drove through. Rain is not a problem for this tire too. I was surprised to drive through a water standing on a side of a highway at 50mph with no expected jerk on the steering wheel. I do not know how this tire will age, but so far it is a great driving experience. We will keep these tires on our car as our every day tire. They are just better tires than OEM and our first replacement rubber were.
