Hey guys,

A long time ago i went Yokohama V4S 205-55-15 tires. They were great tires and lasted me 8 years and 120k miles. I rotate every 2 oil changes and i run Neg 2 camber front and neg 1 in the back.

Its that time where my tires are near slicks bald. I go to find the same tires again and Yokohama no longer makes V4S in 205-55-15. In fact it shows the V4S was replaced by the Envigor which isnt available in 205-55-15. Yokohama now has S-Drive in 205-55-15 anyone runs these? Other then this i almost have no other choices in 205-55-15 .. even the tire shop said i have an oddball tire size

If i step it down to a 205-50-15 i have a huge list of nice performance tires. my problem is the S54 tranny has such short gear ratios going down a little makes my RPM even high for highway use.

If i go up to 205-60-15 i get all these tires with soft side walls which reduces steering response

What tires do you guys like and hows your experience with them?
