Message	be very interested in the A038's as well. Do you know what sizes they come in? I'll need 275/35/18... : Just changed wheel and tire setup on My 95Ztt 5spd. Old setup was stock size Yokohama A032's on stock tt wheels. All I gotta say about that setup is WOW, very sticky, Best money spent twords better 1/4 mile times (13.5 @ 103.7 completely stock, 60 foot time was a consistant 1.9-2.0 seconds). I am not bullshiting ya, confirmed at Union Grove WI. on two seperate ocations. Now the new wheels are Volk Racing TE-37's in silver (to match the silver color of the car). Front are 18x8.5 40mm offset with Yokohama AVS Sports 235-40-18 tires. Rear are 18x9.5 40mm offset with AVS's 265-35-18 tires. So far I am not very impressed. : Even with more rubber on the ground the compound in those tires do not even compare to the A032's. : I am asking if anyone knows a good phone contact in Japan Australia or Canada, website contact or an address of Japan's Yokohama website in Japan. I am looking for the Yokohama A038 tires in the 18" sizes stated above. They are very similar to the A032's but have a better selection of sizes specifically for the 18" variety. They are currently not abvailable in the US. I sent an e-mail to Yokohama and they replied that only the smaller sizes will be available for the A038's. Please keep in mind that I emailed the US Yokohama site so they probibly don't know whats goin on. : CAN ANYBODY OUT THERE HELP ME??????
