Yokohama AVS Sport

I've been running 4 yokohama AVS Sports 205/50/17 on a mk1 Octi vrs for a little over 1year and have about 4mm tread left. They havent been swapped back to front and have currently covered about 14,000 miles. I have a heavy foot most of the time and do enjoy driving the car enthusiasticaly.

They are a little noisy.

a big

to these, I would buy them again.

Upto 20,000 miles and approx 3mm tread left, still perform great with no loss of grip.

Yes but only when it rains or greasy as with most tyres. When the roads are dry I've never experienced any tyres that stick like these.
