These are brand new tires, not sold in the states, awsome race tires. Here is the description given on http://www.yokohamatire.jp/

(translated to English)

- It corresponds to various road surface conditions " the MS compound "
With adoption " of the MS compound " of new development " micro silica " combination, it guarantees grip power widely from the road surface of the midsummer when temperature is high to the road surface of the cool rain. The travelling efficiency which is superior under various road surface conditions is shown.


- Ideal road surface connection rock pressure is actualized " round block pattern "
Up-to-date computer simulation it was produced many from the actual car test, you adopt " round block pattern ". By the fact that single unit block is designated as round condition dry * wet grip it was compatible in the higher-order origin.

bump

 

oo nice ****

 

why not 205-50-15?

 

The side walls of the tires flare out, the 195-55-15 profile, is actually a little more than a 205. We are going to be testing the 195-55-15 our to see how they are in terms of rubbing.

 

what about 16's and the pricing for them...-Roger

 

if my falken azenis didn't really rub...i think these should be fine?

 

how much for the 195--55-15 with shipping to the area code 23456?

 

Prices have yet to be determined, we should have set prices tomorrow afternoon after 3pm PST. I will post prices when we settle on a price.

 

let me know when you get a price

 

We should have two samples of these tires tomorrow. If your local you are welcome to check them out. We will also take some pix of them.

Arman A.

 

whats the treadwear?

 

 

Treadwear does NOT tell you how fast it will wear or how well it will grip.

 

then how do they compare with azenis or yokohama avs es100's lol

 

so what does treadwear do if it doesn't tell us how fast the treadwears
(is it just different from company to company....or..)

 

Its VERY different from company to company. You can only compare treadwear with the SAME manufacture tire.

 

cool...good thing i've experienced yoko treadwear...
my friend as the A520's...those don't last too long either...then again he does drive
hard...

 

if they are not to exspensive i would buy a set. sound like a nice trackday tire

 

ooh nice
pricing on the 195/55/15?

Thanks for all the interest, we will have actual pictures of the tires tomorrow, and pricing for all sizes.
