****Rate your Rubber****

This is an open string to all car types. I do this in all of my forums as a general overview of what you guy's are driving on, and what you think of that tire. Please, when making a post try not to list any questions in the post. This is for informational puposes that everyone can use. Also try not to comment on anyone else's post. this is simply for people to voice their opinoin on what they are driving on. Some idea's on what to comment on are dry and wet traction, dry and wet handling, noise level, ride comfort, tread life, any problems with the tire. You also might want to include what type of driver you are (average, spirited, aggressive, track racer) and the conditions that are common for your area.

Thank you in advance for participating.

I have an 84 Porsche 944 turbo. I am a very aggressive driver and auto crosser. I am currently running 225/45/17 Yokohama ES100's. they start off fairly quiet but as they wear they tend to develope a little more road noise. dry traction is very good, wet traction is great. I normally only drive the car in nicer weather but i do take it out in the rain occassionally. It is never driven in the snow. I have around 18,000 on this set and have had two other sets of the same size and model on this car. I am in northern Indiana which is mostly flat land with all typed of weather conditions ranging from 100 degree heat to 15 and 20 below zero in the winter time.

i am very happy with them and for the type of driver i am, i have no complaints.
