BMW E30 318is Tire Review Highlights

Writing about the Yokohama BluEarth GT AE51 given 83% (195-60-15)
Driving on a combination of roads for 9000 average miles
Much better than the Sumitomo BC100 I had in previously. I immediately notice they were much quieter and noticeably more comfortable than the BC100s I had no real problems in the dry or in the wet. They've performed well in emergency braking situations on my non-ABS car and are not easy to lock up on dry average quality pavement. The loss of grip is progressive and more manageable than the previous tires I had. I've noticed a slight tendency to understeer on very tight corners but that could be suboptimal alignment. In the wet they are more difficult to spin than the Sumitomos and that's a good thing because Greek pavement is not grippy in the rain. As for wear, after about 15000km they had about 5mm tread and that's pretty good considering the fact that I do take my car for spirited drives often. Overall I'd buy again but I'd also like to try the Adan Flevas and see if they're worth the price difference.
