I'm seriously considering these as alternatives to the DSSRs I had before and they are available in 285 30 18 and 225 40 18 which is a nice bonus.
I guess I could try 235 40 18 in front but I had bad rubbing with 245s in front in the past so I don't want to go there again.
I'd want to use them for DE duty so anyone who has them and is as instructor/advanced level at DEs, I'm VERY anxious to hear your feedback!

The AD07 is still the king around here for max dry grip on a non race compound tire. I doubt they will be quite what the SSR is on the track, but close. In the rain there will be no comparison in favor of the Yokohama.
I would not go 245, as the tire has a very square shoulder. They'll probably rub.

A friend of mine was beta testing the then new Neova's on his Boxster. He didnt care for them, but thought they were pretty quiet and offered ample 'warning' before letting go. FWIW

..what concerns me is getting good grip at the track, greasy if after a few laps? how they hold up to a more advanced DE driver? ..and even better if someone has a comparison to DSSRs in a dE setting..
anyone?
