Default Yokohama Avid ENVigor TIRES

OK,
As expected, my stock Pirelli P6 All Seasons are FINSHED
After only 50k, its time for a new set of All Seasons

I've heard some things regarding these Yoko's.
I'm looking for the best set of All Season's possible (yes, All Seasons....not winter/summer)
Does anybody own a set? I know that they are fairly new. What have you heard about them
Looking for the best set of A/S on the market and apparently this is it!
PS Simply Tire out in Buffalo has GREAT deals for all tires if any of you are interested
Any feedback would be greatly apprecaited!

Thanks guys,
SLIM

I have been looking for best possible All seasons too. I have Michelin X-ice on 16 inch rims for winter and just got my new 18 inch S4 rims tonight.

Here is what I have came up as best possible All season tire after reading countless reviews and tests from magazines and car owners who use these two brands. I may be biased as I only need 3 seasons. I do not really care about winter but want excellent ride and handling for other 3 seasons.

1. Bridgestone Potenza Re 960 Pole Positions

2. Michelin Pilot Sport A/S plus

I will look into your Yoko's. How is price on these?

Cheers

Just put 235-40-R18 Yokohama Envigor on my 2006 A4 Quattro 2 weeks ago. They are replacing the original Continental. So far so good. Good adherence wet or dry, silencious, stiff and sporty on the road. Very good price/quality ratio. I got them for 660 Cdn $$ in Montreal.

I am also looking towards the the Potenza re 960 Pole Positions. There is currently a sale at Costco for an additional 75$ off and the price at Costco.

Another option I am looking at is the Potenza 760 sport.

I have no experience with the Yoko's

Take a read through this:

Tire Review - Yokohama Launches 'Grand Performance' ENVigor

Its pretty much down to the Yoko's and Bridgestones for me.....
But i'm really leaning towards the Yoko's

Just ordered a set ( 225/40/18 ) for my TT. The rebate was a bonus. Backordered until beginning of April.

I'm running 17" Snow Lions right now (came with the car), which are surprisingly quiet for a winter tire.
