Depends what you need, for me I am quite a spirited driver.

i had Achilles ATR Sports on the front They were good tyre and lasted 20k kms, but at that stage they were moments aways from crucial failure so probably a good tyre for 15-18k kms. They were quite loud on most road surfaces and got louder towards the 15k kms+. I did not baby them and was quite spirited in my driving with no issues on the street. Wet had no issues either with normal driving.

I have had a pair of Yokohama Advan Sport on all 4 rims for about a fortnight while i was doing some track fun days and drag strip test and tunes.
they were alot quieter then any tyre i have had. Tho unless you doing some on track/drag you do not need them cause it my street driving there is no way i could test the full potential of these tyres.

To what I have on the front now is a brand called Triangle. Like the ATR they are a cheap brand. they are quieter then the ATRs and also for spirited street driving they are great, no issues with hard take off at lights or taking roundabouts at speed. In the wet they are a fine tyre unless you throw common sense out the window and try and take off fast or whatever.

on the back always been Yokohama Advan Sport, had them since i brought the TRD and the previous owner told me it was the tyres that replaced the original Dunlops.

my car now has about ~73k kms


This is my experience so far tyre wise.

Sumitomo, they're holding up well.
The last set were Maxxis, they were absolute cr*p.

Do you have those Maxxis with the arrow like tread? MA-Z1 Victra?

I was so close to buying them.

Stay away from Maxxis mate, the compound is rubbish and they make the ride unbearable on 19's. I've gone back to the factory TRD setup and have put Dunlop Sport Maxx TT's back on. They aren't cheap but the ride, grip and turn in ability is incredible. Softer compound sure, but for everyday driving with the occasional squirt on an open winding road they are brilliant.

Unbearable as in sound or all round performance?

I have Triangles on now except for being a tad noisy they grip good. How long they last is another question.

Yeah, I think it was the MA-Z1 tyres.
Didn't even hit 15,000kms on them, and they were starting to get scalloped leading to vibrations through the steering wheel and increased noise. Tyre guy told me that that's a common problem with the Maxxis tyres, and that one of the more important things to do is get tyres which are designated to going on one side or another, as the offset tread pattern they have is better. Can't remember the particulars, I just swear by that store.
