Hi Everyone!

I'm looking to get some new tires for a 2003 MC and the Yokohama Avid Envirgor's on tirerack.com caught my eye. I've heard good things about this brand and was wondering if anyone had reviews?


Thanks!

I won a set of Yokohama S. Drives at MOTD 2008.  They stick pretty well but they became a bit noisy after some wear.

Yeah, I read a couple of reviews about the noise. One owner seemed to suggest that adjusting the air pressure combated the sound a bit. But thanks for the info! I'm still looking around.

I had Yokohama S drives on both of my MINi's. Loved them at first. But boy did they get noisy! Had decent wear though. I wasn't too hapy with them. but I have heard good things about the ENVigor.

I had a set of Yokohama Paradas awhile back.  Great grip and really cool tread pattern, until it wore down.  By the time I got rid of them, they sounded like Thornburgs.

I'm on my 3rd set of Hankook tires.  First two sets were Ventus V4 ES.  Current set is V12 K110.  Great grip and quiet, even after 20,000 miles wear.
