I have used the AVS' for the last two years.. They are a very good tire for certain conditions. Pavement driving with rain, GREAT! Pavement driving with snow, NO!! They do wonderfully offroad although this last trip to Moab I did see a few more "chunks" missing from the tread. Sand covering a hard surface, you see yourself slide a bit but, I imagine you would do fine on the beach.

It really depends on the type of driving you want more performance on and what looks you want. The Nitto's are a great all-round tire but have the off-road look. The Yoke's have a great street look but, are limited on their best performance to the street.

Even though I love the Yokes, I'll probably go with the Nittos by next year's Moab trip.
