Need new tire by Nov 8 - Page 2

Well, I just ordered the Yoko's. The lower cost, coupled with the high ratings and overall great reviews swung me to them. I also want a more sport tire than the Continential and I think the AVID H4S's fit that bill.
I'll let you know how they are.

How funny it seems you sold those tire to yourself. Well grats on the purchase. I'm guessing you bought them through Tire Rack right? I look forward to hearing what you think of the tires.

Yes, I guess I did sell them to myself. Don't know what that says about my sales ability.

I'll be sure to give a full report on all driving aspects and if I have any vibration issues.

Yes, Tire Rack. I've been buying there for over 10 yrs now and they have always stood behind their product.
Plus I use a small local repair shop here to install. They use sticky weights and take their time in making sure the tires are balanced correctly.

I think your sales ability is right on cause honestly before you posted that you purchased them i was going to just go for it and order them myself. But now that you bought them I'm just going to wait on your review and if you give the thumbs up I'm completely sold and I'll get them.

I wanted to get my rear sway bar installed before putting the new tires on as I'd have to get an alignment once I dropped the rear cradle. I just completed that this past Friday, so I'll get the tires on this week.
I like the look of the tread pattern, and the sidewalls. Also, they have high ratings, AA on traction and 60K treadwear warranty are all great.

However, they are directional tires. You can only move them front to back. You can't rotate them left to right, so you need to be on top of your rotations and make sure the car is aligned right.

Otherwise, I fully believe for the owner looking for some more performance out of their tires, yet with still good wear patterns, this tire will be a winner.
