1336, Are Yokohama tyres good?
Posted by HadesOmega, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
At a local America's Tire I found 3 Yokohama AVID (something somethings) 215/55/16s Treadwear 360 Rating: A A

They were used tyres for 40 bucks each!!! I asked they guy how much another new one would cost and he said 115! I'm all holy sh@# that's a good ass deal. I just wanna know if these are good.

if they are A A, they are at least decent, but you should get all 4 tires new or with the exact same mileage- 3 used and 1 new wont be good.

I heard they are loud as hell. I'd go with the Bridgestone RE730's .Not sure what Yoko you are going with but I just heard the A520's were noisy and if you live in a crappy climate. .like I do here in seattle, they don't handle that well on non dry surfaces.

I have the yoko paradas, and have had no problems with them so far. used them already on a little snow and they gripped fine.

I have the A520's and they handle just fine in the rain for me. i cant hear any noise from the tires, but i also have a greddy evo exhaust, so that drowns out a lot of other noise, but i hear no tire noise at all... i USED to have Dunlop W-10's, they are VERY loud.
