Done!, Cant wait to attack genting soon


Same size seem fleva contact patch smaller than s drive

initial review after that day go touge batang kali to genting. just happen gohtong to genting rain, can test damp condition.

1. more comfort compare to s drive , yellow line feel not as harsh as s drive
2. same damper setting , a lot more roll , just as i use hand to test the sidewall,it feel softer
3. the grip level might be around the same as s drive, i dunno whether the tire fully run in yet , but the limit seem much earlier than s drive, squeeze much earlier. new s drive don't seem to squeeze much.
4. wet/damp condition better than s drive when new, but not sure about aquaplaning resistance though

my suspension setup guy suggest me to play around with the damper  clicker to try first as he said this tire better than s drive, i will try to.

for now if you ask me, I will choose S drive instead.

Just an update on this tyre..

Sad to say I suffered a blow out this morning.. Happened during cruise at highway.. Luckily the stiff sidewall held.. And managed to cruise to my destination. Didn't know it blew cause it felt like hitting  pothole.. In the middle of a highway ( should have guessed it by then)

Anyway.. The outside sidewall blew with 2 puncture slits. No pics as I don't know how to embed. No bulge seen earlier as I just brought my car in for service last weekend. Age of tyre.. 3 months milage 5k

Plan to claim warranty as I believe it's a defect. Not sure if yokohama will entertain or not.. Anyone here has any experience of claiming?

After this incident.. Abit worried on the quality of the fleva. Blow out is quite a dangerous incident.

Oops I meant no bulge.. I just serviced the car last weekend and didn't see anything out of ordinary
