Yokohama AVID ENVigor 205/60-16
My Michelins are shot & I'm looking for a good replacement that won't break the bank & until I can get my hands on a set of 06-08 TSX wheels, making these spares.
I've never had any problems with Yokohamas, had the predecessor to this tire on my Saturn when I was Autocrossing it, and never had a problem.
Anyone had any experience with AVID ENVigor's? Or know of a good tire, around $400 for a set?
Thanks

i was tore between these tires and goodyear eagle gt's. ENvigors are very good tires, but i went with the goodyear eagle gt's since i wanted higher performance and a firmer ride. very satisfied with the goodyears, they perform great in wet and dry conditions, except they do have a weird on center feel which i was aware of before buying them. But for 205/60/16 there isnt many good tires to choose from other than the ENvigors and eagle gt's anymore, unless you want to go back to oem michelin tires

Think I'm going to go with the Yok's. I've always had good luck with them.
Luckily I work at a dealership, so I can get them mounted/balanced for free Just have to figure out how to get them shipped there....

Ship them to your house and bring them there?

Or try to pick up a set of TL-S or CL-S rims with tires. I picked up a set of CL-S rims for $260 that had 2 like new tires on them and replaced the other 2 with used but with 85% tread Michelin tires for $120 including mounting and balancing all the rims. So $380 got me a nice set of rims and tires. Try looking around craigslist or black market.

Tirerack End of story.

Tirerack is where I've been looking. My wife and I are rarely home (40+ hr work weeks, plus commuting), so I don't know about having them shipped to an apt. Don't want them to disappear onto someone else's car. Our main office won't hold packages for some reason.
Wish I could find some 06-08 TSX wheels locally, but haven't had any luck so far.

Use Tirerack and have them shipped to an Installer. They have a recommended Installer program with shops that do good work.

Luckily we're having some awesome weather, gotta get this done before the rain comes back.

Update
Only had them for a few days, but it's been raining quite a bit here. No complaints, I'm happy with them so far, holds the road really well in wet situations.
Went with H-rated tires instead of V-rated because the V's were on backorder and the Michelins I had were dangerous in the rain.
