High Performane All Seasons for S500...

Anyone ever had Yokohama's Avid Series tires? I hear good things about them.

Our S500 is in need of replacement on 3 of the 4 tires

I've been looking at high performance all seasons with something that has good tread life, good handling, does a decent job during winter months and quiet. I think I've found a good replacement for the crappy ContiCH95's we have on there now...Yokohama's Avid V4.

any opinions? Looks pretty darn good IMO...

depends on the weather
the AVID V4S is a very nice blend between ride quality and grip .... but, it is a little weak in the steering response area
