Any of you out there run Yokohama's? I have a friend in the biz that can get any model (Yokohama) super cheap. Currently running Hankook Ventus EV12's and really like em..... Thanks guys/gals!

 

I liked Yokohamas they were a good brand

 

I ran yoko ad08 and ad05's on my evo and they were great tires. Awesome performance in the dry...absolutely awesome. That said, they have a very stiff sidewall so the ride will be noticably harder.

 

how cheap? lol

looking for 19s

 

Haven't ran any on the Benz, but on my Evo i have and currently use the A046's, A048's, and the A032's. Each one is badass IMO. If you're looking for something with a decent tread life, look at some all season models.

always been happy with them

Very happy with the S.Drives...

 

I am very impressed with Vredestein ULTRAC SESSANTA tires. Very quiet and loads of grip. Handle amazing in the wet and dry. I will buy them again.

i just purchased some bfg kdw ta's in 245/35/20 and 285/30/20 tires for the e55 today , i have them on my AWD SS truck with about 1200 awtq and they work great for traction on 22's(305/40/22)

 

Hope your not lowered, or good luck fitting those

 

Yoks are great tires, especially if you can get them at the sponsor rate - used to be less than $50 / tire. Ran them on the Evo & Porsche and loved them.

 

Not sure what you consider cheap, but I recently shopped tires for my 63, was ready to go with Hankook V12s, but went with the new Michelin Pilot Super Sports as they are only about $125 more, way less than what the PS2 used to cost.

Still more $$ than the Yoko SDrive., Nittos and a few others, but not nearly as much more as a few years ago. Michelins have correct load rating, and also widest rear tread. Michelin has gotten a lot more competitive.

Having them put on next week, will update my observations after a few weeks of driving.

 

im not lowered and i have no intentions on doing so . reason i went so big is the bfg kdw doesent come in the 275/30 i have now .

curious to those with michilins , those were highly rated with alot of good reviews. i just love how soft these kdw's are but they dont last as long as most.

 

BFG is owned by Michelin. Their performance tires don't last long.

 

$100 off each rear tire!

 

Hook it up bro

 

Looking into the S.Drive and ADVAN Sport. Think I may have a winner!

 

Got my Michelin Pilot Super Sports mounted today, very pleased.

Smooth, quiet, excellent handling and straight line traction.

I went with stock sizes, 245/40/18 and 265/35/18. The rear tread is almost an inch wider than the same size PS2 was, over 10 inches. As fyi, the 275 tread on the PSS is not any wider for those looking to upsize.

Better than my replaced Michelin PS2's, although in fairness the PS2 fronts had been on since 2009, had 11K on them, and the inside treads were completely worn out from negative camber.....I always run in Sport 1 or Sport 2.

The PSS works very well on an E63.

 

Congrats! If you don't mind me asking what was the cost for all 4? I love that tire as well, but it can be pretty spendy from what I heard. What is the longevity rating on those tires?

 

I bought them at Onlinetires.com, better pricing than everywhere else I looked.

Michelin has an almost ship free deal going, it was like $18 extra for 4 tires.

Not sure about longevity just yet, but treadwear rating is 300, the old PS2 was 220, and Michelin sais they will last longer than PS2. I'll have a better answer in six months or so.

For comparison, Hankook V12 treadwear is 280; I have V12's on my C55, and after 11K miles they are about 65 percent worn, I'm hoping to get 15K out of them. May go with PSS on the C too depending on $$ when it's time of course.

 

Can u help me what your man site who should we ask for holla
