QUOTE(imgaylord @ Feb 3 2015, 12:57 AM) AFAIK, Bluearth AE01 is a completely different line up in which the A drive is still in production (as with A drive R1):http://www.yokohamatire.jp/yrc/japan/searchbytirebrand.html japan don't seem to be selling a drive/a drive r1/c drive/c drive 2 so Yokohama australia lol: http://www.yokohama.com.au/Tyres/A-Drive.aspx anyways i've personally used a drive and AE01 myself, albeit both are on different cars, they are vastly different. to put into perspective, the ae01 on the sentra is 195/60/15, while the a drive on the iswara was 175/70/13 and funnily, the ae01 is much lighter in weight, and waaayyyy softer. it's like the tire is made out of fluff or something, like you're driving on pillows. performance is ok if you're driving civilly, although i hate the steering response due to the damn soft sidewall. (could be biased as i'm someone who's own TWO sets of Advan Neova AD08R separately on my iswara and Inspira.) personally, i find the A drive being rubbish aside from being dirt cheap another thing to note, the worker at the tyre shop could be very misinformed as a drive r1 is an entry level sport tire (below S drive), similarly to the ATR sport: http://global.yokohamatire.net/products/adrive_r1.html in my experience, almost all directional tires tend to be worse on NVH. so there you go |

QUOTE(imgaylord @ Feb 4 2015, 12:49 AM) Thanks for sharing bro. Looks like you have a lot of different cars at home. np, not entirely my cars, however i do maintain them since females (majority anyways) don't really care about automotive lol.My experience is based on the same car with different tyres only. Anyway, I believe every tyre out there fits a purpose and targeting different user. my own ones are the iswara/inspira most of my experience are very limited to Yokohama since i tend to visit nestum lol hence i tend to explore/gather various feedbacks from other brands that i am intrigued with, such as Michelin/Bridgestone in particular. not exactly fond of the XM2, so ecopia ep200 is a good alternative. out of topic: on the extreme categories i am looking forward to the dunlop direzza zii star spec |
