These tires were a great improvement over the original Eagle LS2.
Ride is smooth and quiet, wet traction is awesome.

I have to delcare that I've never used this tire in winter during the 60,000km period, as many people said it is so terrible on snow, I can't comment on that.
The tire provided super grip when it was new, however, it does wear out fast and cause a worry for me. But supprisingly, even with the treadwear is not looking good, it still behave well on dry and rainy days. This tire need to be re-balanced very often. I doubt about the manufacturuer claims that it is good for 110,000km, but I think to reach to the mark of 70,000km is not a big problem, of course, for the last 1/4 life of the tire, you have to drive more conservative. Overall, it is a good product compare to my last set of Falken and Goodyear, certainly something must be better than it out there, but the cost $$$ is always a factor for the purchase decision, otherwise everybody would be liking to get a set of Pirelli P-Zero.

I have these on a '06 Mazda MX-5 (Miata). They are leaps and bounds better than the Potenza's I had. The grip on dry pavement is impressive. On wet, it steps out just a bit in extreme cornering. I don't winter drive the car, so I have nothing to comment there. And I only have about 2000 km's on them, so no wear data yet. Road noise is no worse than the previous tire, maybe a bit better. It is a soft-top car, so I would notice if there were an appreciable difference.
Overall, these are a good performance tire and a lot of fun on the right car.

Great Tire! Traction in wet and Dry Conditions is amazing. Very quite comfortable ride. Tires are on an 05 Honda Accord. Haven't used them in snow so take snow rating with a grain of salt. Tires are a great value.

I was first introduced to these tires at the Yokohama booth at the LA Auto show when I was on vacation. The Yokohama rep did a good job selling these esp highlighting yokohama as a company and the Avid EnVigor line and when it was time for me to get new tires for my Lexus SUV, I went with these. They are wonderful on dry paved roads and was definitely quieter than the goodyears that came with my vehicle. It also handled alright on wet roads which can’t screw up that much cause I had AWD. When snow hit or when the roads were icey, you could definitely feel these babys slip. The road slipage lights just light up like a Christmas tree on my car console. As far as wear and tear, I rotated these every 5000 miles.
So 25,000 miles in and about 1 year and 2 months later, the treads now are almost gone and from my last tire rotation, which was about a week ago, they said that I have now about 1-2 months left on these, 2 if I’m lucky. Yokohama has GOT to be joking. These weren’t the cheapest and at the price they are selling, there were many more alternatives that could of lasted longer. It is also time to replace the tires on my Wife’s X5 and was also offered these Yokohamas as an option. Obviously, with my experience with these, I will definitely NOT be buy this NOR any other Yokohama products in the future for My vehicle nor my wife’s vehicle.
You have been warned. Buy at your own risk.
