It might show you some interesting facts that you haven't considered about the type of tire you're considering.

Yokohama Customer Review Example

Yokohama Tire Model: AVS Sport (pictured below)

Yokohama Tire Model: AVS SportYokohama has once again raised the bar in the world of ultra-high performance summer tires. Designed with the extreme performance insistent driver in mind, the Sport's distinctive Y-shaped tread makes it dramatically different from any other previous design. The unique tread configuration simultaneously accomplishes two seemingly contradictory goals: the water evacuation characteristics of the tire have been improved for wet handling while the overall void area has been reduced for additional control in dry conditions.

Derived from their legendary AVS Wet Racing Tire, this new street tire gives you the performance you need on both wet and dry road conditions while maintaining the perfect balance of control and wear resistance. Yokohama's advanced construction contributes to high-speed stability, low rolling resistance, excellent handling and riding comfort all in one tire, appropriately named "Sport".
