Folks

Im trying to find some tyres for the parents car, and am looking for some reccomdations.

Car : Subaru Forrester DX Jan 2008
Current tyre size 215/60R16 95H - Yokohama Geolander.

The order of tyre requirements is listed below.

Tyre life, puncture resistance, bitumen handling, off-road handling, cost/price, road noise, looks, brand name.

A 90/10 mix of on/off road is what they need. They do a little gravel and sand touring in it.

They would like to pay less than $200 per tyre, and less than $170 would be excellent.

Anyone got some reccomdations for this?
