Well, after about 1000mi, including a rather chilly trip down to Deal's Gap last weekend, I'm really sold on these tires. Got nothing bad really to say about them at all thusfar. Good in dry, good in wet, not too noisy (and I had over 12hrs of highway driving to do!).
Everything I asked for! Shame the car's going to be retired for the winter after this week :-( -Bryan --- On Mon, 10/25/10, Scott Kirkham <[email protected]> wrote: From: Scott Kirkham <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [list] Re: Yokohama S.Drives [NPC] To: "'Bryan Wyatt'" <[email protected]>, "'Miata Mailing List'" <[email protected]>, "'Miata Power List'" <[email protected]> Date: Monday, October 25, 2010, 9:32 PM I’ve had S-Drives on my 18” Mazdaspeed by Rays wheels, on two different cars, and I *love* them, even after about 10k miles or so.

Going to have to dump the pressure a little more in the morning, methinks. I think they have the potential to have much more grip than my old tires, but we'll see how it plays out. So far, I have no reason not to like them. -Bryan --- On Sun, 10/24/10, derf <[email protected]> wrote: From: derf <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [list] Re: Yokohama S.Drives [NPC] To: "Steve Kiffmeyer" <[email protected]> Cc: "Bryan Wyatt" <[email protected]>, "Miata Mailing List" <[email protected]>, "Miata Power List" <[email protected]> Date: Sunday, October 24, 2010, 11:46 PM If you have 100 miles you have lost all mold release agent long ago. I got some Kumhos on some BBS wheels I bought. They had good tread so I decided to run them. I was shocked by how well they grip, even in the rain. I was kinda hoping they'd be squirrely so I could "play in the rain", but they are grippy. Between the Kumhos and the Torsen rear the lift-off oversteer can be squirrely, though.
