so far everything ive seen points to tons of grip but the 200 tread wear rating is laughable at best. pretty much they put 200 on it to pass for autocross classes but daily driving will destroy them fast.
there's a couple thread up on here so far with a few reviews and first reactions.

yea I was really looking forward to trying these but a. they are only in oem sizes and I wanted to stick with 265/305. b. after seeing reviews on them falling apart quickly and me using the Z as a warm weather DD doesn't help. I don't have a spare set of wheels currently that I could mount track tires on and swap.

And the problem to get tires here in PR is the other thing that we have to get in mind bro... not too much options or shops that sell wider tires

Tell me about it bro. Thats why i decided to get rid of my 20" wheels. For my turbo application is has been next to impossible to find wide and sticky good tires in that size even the Michelin Pilot Super Sport which is a great tire is also impossible to find here unless you order it from tire rack.

Totally appreciated Carlitos . I'll call in the next few days and see what they can tell me. Change to the stock 18' from the 20's today and damn what a difference in performance. The car feels lighter and although not the best tires the stock yokohamas definitely have better grip than those useless nitto invos.
