The Pirelli's ran out at 17K miles, went with the Yokos and cant say enough good things about them. The road noise is almost nonexistent and handling is good, I was skeptical initially but this tire is nice

most likely the only yoko to receive praise...

How many miles on your Yokos? I have 16k on OEM Pirellis and not much left.

Less than 200 on the Yokos.

My OEM Pirelli's have 27K on them, and are just about ready to retire. I will most likely go with Nitto NT421Q tires.

Not at all true. I have Yokos on 3 of my 4 cars and love 'em. Currently 26k on the Parada Spec X on my Q7, and they look like they have another 5k left on them. They are quiet, handle well and have excellent wet and dry traction. I'll replace with same when it's time.

I run Geolandar A/T-S on my G500, and they are excellent!

i was making a joke referring to yoko ono not the entire line yokohama tires. i had yokohama parada specII tires on a car back in '00 and did not have any complaints.

+1 Have them on the Infiniti FX35 after 2 replacements with the OEM Goodyears which only lasted 22K miles each. Yokos are at 32K and still going strong. Love them in the snow too.

Might consider them now after the Q7 OEM tires need replacing.

Second that. I am on my second set (one set on our 07 Q7 and one on our 08 Q7) of Yoko Parada Spec X tires and have no complaints.

Update on the Yokos, 17k miles and Yokos shot! Got 16k miles from the Scoprion Zeros before that. So decided to stay on the economical side and go with a tread warranty tire, installed Hankook Ventus RH07, will see how these go.
