have noticed that as well doesnt feel too stable in the wet, but think the yokohamas wont last as long thats the only thing?
cheers

My IS200 S had 5 yokohamas on when I bought it at 18000 miles so I guess they'd been fitted as standard. I'm not sure about the yoko's performance in the wet - I've got pirelli P6000s on the front now and I think they're better but I won't really know til I've got them on the back. The yokos seemed to slip at the back, not the front. I've just replaced the fronts at 22000 - the rears had plenty of tread when I bought it so I'm guessing that the fronts lasted 22000 and the rears something like10-17000 and were replaced before I bought it.
