Maybe it's the fact that my ES100's are only in 215 width (mounted on 17X7.5 Rota's), but my opinion is the opposite. They don't seem like anything special in the dry, but they seem pretty good in the wet. Wierd.

The Toyo Proxes 4's I run as winter tires on the stock rims in 225 width actually seem to have equal dry handeling to that of the the Yoko's. I'm actually thinking of just selling the Rota's with the Yoko's and running my winter setup year round now. Does 1 cm of tire width really make that much of a difference?

Sorry for the hijack Khail.
