Although I can't find stock ANYWHERE and if I do they want 160 Canadian for them when it's usually 110 Canadian Dolars.

I'm likely ordering the Yokohoma AVS ES100's this week.

I've had the Ecsta 712's and HATED them. Nice road tire but when it actually came to flogging on them they'de slide out it corners and spin like hell of the line. Heck they don't even do a nice smoke show!! Just spin and spin. I don't know why people like them. almost every person who has had them hates them and I've heard the 711's are a better tire yet.

Let me know how you like them, so I'll know before I put a set of them on.

Yeah, just rotated my tires the other day. Should be able to pull a couple months more out of them.

i just bought two 195 14 yoko avs es 100's... haven't put them on yet, but they came highly recomended by local people here in michigan as a summer tire. I read tons of reviews on them at tire rack and they were saying they were some sticky tires on dry pavement esp. for the price... i'm waiting to put some new tie-rod ends and doing an alignment before i strap em on my 89 turbo rex... they look great on the stock si rims... if you wanna wait, pm me this thursday night and i'll let u know how much better they are than my current kelly chargers.
