Awesome tyre. Great grip in wet and dry. Performance in wet did wear off a little after about 3 years despite plenty of meat left on the tyre. Don't know what people are talking about this tyre wearing out quickly. I've done nearly 90,000 k, and am likely to get another 10,000. I bought it because i thought it was a soft compound tyre, but i must have been mistaken. Thinking of replacing with another set of same, but am also tempted to check another tyre out just for the hell of it. Overall 9/10.

I'd had Yokos on another car a while ago and thought I'd try them again as the performance and grip then was superb. Once again I was not disappointed. They give tremendous grip in the dry, and more importantly in the wet. They do wear down a little quicker than some as they are a softer rubber compound, but I was fully aware of this and it is a price I'm prepared to pay for a tyre that is this good in the wet.

got these to replace my rear sp sport maxx wich had the wrong load index (87)
these are 94, and the sidewalls are not even much firmer! i have had them for a very short while now, and am already starting to regret not having bought something more sporty
grip seems really good on dry. and the tread looks wider than the actual size.
on the other hand, i think these tyres are more of a family saloon tyre than a sporty tyre.

Great progressive tyre on my S2 106 Rallye, also due the the 60 profile. They have saved me a few times from lift off oversteer, really progressive on the limit.
Dry grip is great, i never have an issue. In the wet however i do experience understeer. At the end of the day they they are a comfort based tyre not a performance one, they give you abit of both worlds even on my stripped out hot hatch.

Extremely good tyres, a pair on the front gave enough cornering grip to induce oversteer(fwd civic,dry road)and I dont mean lift off o/s.Full set really hold.Always cornered confidently, even wet,no surprises.Front set lasted about 9k.Definately recommend.Id fit again but they dont make them the size I now need.
