Am on the stock Yokohama blueearth from Subaru .
Mine is xv as well
Don't go for it
These tyres are so noisy and the grip is below average

BlueEarth got many models, but sadly the 1 offered by SC is not very promising (E70 model)

Outside tire shop selling the AE61 model got better feedback.

If want to buy Yokohama tires better get from outside and the price difference not too much.
Now for the same size Yokohama also got bring in cheaper variant under ES32 model which is to direct compete with the local Toyo CR1 SUV tire.

Personally i would recommend AE61 first, as that tire is design for city urban SUV/Crossover while ES32 is for normal passenger tires.

Hey y'all,

I'm driving a 2019 Subaru XV, currently using the Conti MC5 (225/60 R17) that came with stock with the car. It's definitely looking like I've gotta change them in the the next few weeks.

Just wondering any recommendations for tyres around the rm450 and below price range?

Also when I was at the SC, they had a promotion for Yokohama bluearth. 5pcs(including spare) for RM2120 incl of alignment and balancing; should I take them up on this offer?
Thank you for all of your assistance

No, not worth it. The 1 SC selling is the E70 model which got many bad reviews, for the same price better get the AE61 Yokohama model from outside tire shop.
