S.DRIVE

"What separates the S.drive from other tires is its construction, designed for a long life, low rolling resistance, good grip and traction..."

"So how good is the S.drive? Whether they were on the HKS 350Z or BMW 1 Series, the new Yokohama tire impressed, exhibiting excellent grip and traction. It performed far better than the stock O.E. tire, and was comparable to the ADVAN Neova."

"The S.drive is an ideal aftermarket tire for performance enthusiasts on a slight budget."

"It may well be the best and most cost-efficient way to instantly improve the performance of your Nissan 350z or Honda Civic."

"...it communicated its intentions better. The S.drive was really able to show its hand in the wet braking where it pulled up several feet short of Michelin's best effort."

"It's very forgiving with plenty of feedback. Turn-in was predictable and allowed you to place the car precisely where you wanted it on the short track, and we found braking forces were high. The tires had ample grip and weren't constantly understeering when pushed hard."

"The S.drive appeared to be hard wearing. After a day of serious abuse, the tires on the 130i looked new. In fact, Yokohama brought out D1 drift racer Takahiro Ueno to provide a memorable drift demonstration in the T&E 350Z, and even after such punishment the tread blocks were barely scuffed."
