I've heard talk that supply issues have required a switch from the RE92s to a Yokohama tire. However, I don't know which line is being used. I should be taking delivery on a TC within 1-30 days (You know how that goes) and I want to know what to expect.

 

The Yok's are YOKOHAMA S32A 215/45ZR17's

they have just around the same performance as the RE92's I'd guess they were just having an issue with getting all those RE92's and switched, because it seems only some new TC's that have been sent over from port have them, and some don't.

Either way, the tires are not that great, but good summer tires. They're labeled all weather tires but the RE92's stink in the snow (which tires don't? aside of snow tires that is) and they loose too much traction in the rain, I've spun my tires a few times in the rain more than I'd like to.

 

i have the yokos and love them. it snowed here a few weeks ago and i had no problems......i think people just cant drive thats all.

 

if you want to check out tires, i would suggest going to tirerack.com, and read the reviews/ratings on similar tire. Hope this helps,
