but now they only seem to have grip if the road is wet (they're fabulous in water!). I don't actually know if the tire is to blame however as I am now replacing my suspension due to the fact that my subframe bushings were shot and leaking out everywhere. If my suspension were okay, these might have been nice tires. I know the Nissan dealer who put them on seemed genuinely impressed with the biuld quality ... they said it was identical to a racing tire. Anyway, given the choice, I would pay for the Yokohamas.
