Our take

The Yokohama AVID S34D is a suitable choice for drivers seeking a comfortable and quiet ride in urban settings, thanks to its comfort and noise scores of 8, matching the category average. Its wet grip rating of 7.5 is a notable strength, surpassing the category average and providing confidence in wet conditions. However, the tire's treadwear rating of 320 is a significant drawback, falling well below the category average of 596. This suggests a shorter lifespan, compounded by the absence of a treadwear warranty, which is a common feature among its competitors. The R speed rating also limits the tire's performance at higher speeds, which might be a concern for some drivers. In comparison, the Continental ProContact TX offers a treadwear warranty, making it a better option for those concerned about long-term value. The BFGoodrich Advantage Control and Continental ContiProContact may also offer more balanced performance across various attributes. If longevity and warranty coverage are priorities, consider these alternatives over the AVID S34D.

Pros

  • Comfort and noise scores of 8 match the category average, making for a quiet and smooth ride typical of touring all-season tires.
  • Wet grip rating of 7.5 exceeds the category average of 6.9, offering reliable performance in rainy conditions.
  • Dry grip and handling scores of 7.5 are competitive, keeping pace with the segment's expectations for everyday driving.

Cons

  • The lack of a treadwear warranty and a low UTQG rating suggest a shorter lifespan, increasing the long-term cost of ownership.
  • Treadwear rating of 320 is significantly below the category average of 596, indicating a shorter lifespan compared to competitors.
  • No treadwear warranty is offered, which is a disadvantage against competitors like the Continental ProContact TX that come with mileage guarantees.
  • The speed rating of R is lower than many competitors, potentially limiting performance at higher speeds.
