Anyone running these Yoko's?

Ive done a search and either no one is really using yoko AS430's or no one wants to admit it.

Does anyone know anything about or have any experience with these tires? I am having them put on tomorrow and ill give some initial impressions over the stockers.

What size are you getting? I don't think these are available in 215/50/17 or 225/45/17, so you may be the first to try them out. Definitely interested in reading about your impressions!

size is 215/50/17...the shop also said they were a relatively new tire.

Initial impressions: Road noise is cut in half, although my Michelin's were pretty beat down at 44k on them. As far as handling goes I have not logged enough miles to really give a thorough opinion, but i thought the car immediately felt more responsive and connected to the road.

Have yet to see how perform in wet/snow. Updates to come later.
