Rainsport 3 on front at 12000 now having to change these due to wear at 25000 miles. Trying out Goodyear and keeping my figures crossed. No noticeable difference in car characteristics between any of the tires all very good with braking and traction. wet or dry. Uni Royal were noticeable noisier on front than Bridgestone

I digress, but I really wanted some assurances that I wouldnt make the ride even worse on the yeti by putting an untried tire on it. The ride is too hard on the 17" wheels but it is compounded by a really odd tire choice by the oem. The dunlop is as hard as glass! though they last and last....you dont want them too. The side walls also crack (probably down to such hard rubber). I was very near to buying a smaller set of alloys for the yeti to get a better ride but with the bridgestones, its not totally changed the car, but its a worthy ride improvement without a wheel change. You will see from the other 2 cars, I like firm riding cars so I dont think I am a picky one trying to improve on the dunlops.
Dunlops in the dry gripped really well, I don't see any loss in the bridgestone. In the wet the bridgestone is better and in all the rain we have had have never lost traction.(yes its 4x4 but I include aquaplaning in that statement)
The ecopia bit.... not sure. Its the same mpg I ever had. I only went ecopia because I couldnt find the 94W load/speed rating in the standard tire. Id say it neither gives nor takes anything away comparing them to the standard ones on the fab.
I would suggest that these are the best tire pound for pound at about £120 a corner, most importantly I doubt there is anything better suited to the yeti on 17" wheels. Anyone with a yeti knows the party piece is it corners hard and fairly flat, you loose none of that!
Buy with confidence. I wouldnt swap them for anything at any price
