Info on the Yokohama S. Drive Tire
 
I am looking to buy new tires and was doing my research, I was wondering if any of you had any info on the Yokohama S. Drive tire. I read some reviews on the tire sites. They have good reviews but I was hoping someone that has them here would give me some insight on them.

I would like to know if they grip the road
How cornering is
Wet/dry traction

Any info would help

it's mediocre at best. you're better off getting the continental DW's for around that price. :)

Don't get the S drive,go for AD-08,if you like Yokohama.

I had S-drives on my 350z. They are a decent tire for the price. Can't really rate them on wet traction since I never drove in the rain, even though I lived in WA state. Tread wear wasn't the greatest either. I thought the side walls felt alittle soft when cornering. I think the hankook ventus V12 is a better all around tire which is in the same price range. I replaced my S-drives with those.
