How bad are the stock Yoko g91s in snow?
Got about 17k miles on our 19 with stock 225/65/17 Yokohama Geolander g91a tires. Most everything Ive read about these tires online states how incredibly terrible they are in various conditions. We bought our cx5 awd new in June so havent had a chance yet to drive in rain or snow, but the tires have been fine in the dry, and still have about 70% or more tread remaining. Planning on several trips up to Lake Tahoe this winter if it ever snows, and am wondering if the stock yokos will get us thru the snow without much trouble.
What do you guys think? Run stock Yokos up to the snow or replace with better all season tires? Will be replacing with something better eventually and hate to get rid of good tires with so much tread left, but also gotta keep the fam safe
