    Yokohama Avid Envigor

    Anyone running Yokohama Avids on their MM? I had a set on the girlfriends 2010 Camry SE V6 and they handled pretty well for the 215/55-17 size. Curious what they do on our cars.

    As I recall some have tried the Avids and thought they were a bit sloppy. Sending you a PM

    If I recall correctly they aren't available in our stock staggered sizes.

    I run them on my MGM summer wheels in 245/50/17 all around, and felt that the car handles much better than my MM. To me the MM is a little too loose in the rear if pushed too hard in the corners....I think the rear tires are too tall in the sidewall.

    They are quite the popular tire for Honda Accords.

    These are what I have on my Marauder in 235/55 and 255/55. I've been very happy with these. I've had them on about 10K miles. They're wearing well, handle well, and are very quiet.

    I have the ones you listed above on my 07 GT convertible, and I'm very happy with them also. I have those on the Mustang in a 255/45-18 all the way around. I'm pleased with both sets.

    I know this is a bit old, but I just saw it.

    I ran a set of V rated 235/55 Yoko Avid Envigors on my MM. I changed to the same size all around to make the spare work properly and allow for some rotation.
    I got about 50k out of my set of these. I really liked the way the car drove with them. I chose them because of the ratings at TireRack and they were the best option in the 235/55 18 at the time (early 2009). I replaced the Yokos last November with Continental Conti Extreme Contacts, still in 235/55 18 all around. I went with the Conti's this time because they aren't directional, are W speed rated, and are highly rated as well.

    The only thing I really had against the Yokos was that they are directional which limits rotation. I also have a set of these Yokos on my wife's 2000 Taurus and on my mother's 98 GM. We are all happy with them.
