Tires YOKOHAMA or TIGAR

I've heard they don't last long but they are doing great on my Lotus Elise.

I'm on my 3rd season on mine with about 60 runs and the same 60 second course a season and I just put in my best performance last month.

Yoks are fast asf. Between the yoks and my new years resolution of "don't be a bitch" I picked up something like 2 seconds over last year.

Here's how my tires look after this season. This is \~75-80 runs total on a 60s course on concrete. There's still meat on the bone, but I don't think there's another 80 left. I'll be buying more tires by the middle of next season at the latest.

I just purchased new Yokohama @ $230 each. I didn't notice a difference in sound and still getting the same 3.2 kwh as OEM Dunlops. With 11/32 depth, my Ariya handles better with the Yokohamas.

That 3.5L V6 is buttery smooth and powerful — proper sleeper sedan feel.

Cabin’s still super comfy, feels premium even today.

Reliable engine if maintained right, and new Yokohamas are a good sign someone cared.

You’ll definitely stand out — not many V6s left running around.

It drinks fuel like crazy. Expect 5–6 km/l in city, maybe 9 on highways if you drive easy.

Honda never sold too many V6s, so some parts can be pricey or take time to source.

The timing belt change is expensive (₹50–70k job with labour and water pump).

Regular service at a good garage will be around ₹15–20k; authorised service centers will charge more.

VCM (cylinder deactivation) can act up — oil burning or misfires if not maintained properly.

Suspension and mounts wear faster due to weight; replacements are expensive.

Low resale — not many buyers for a thirsty V6, so you’ll have to love it enough to keep it.

Big car in tight cities — parking and ground clearance can be annoying.

Insurance and taxes higher due to engine size (>3L category).

Heat management — some owners complain about heat soak in slow traffic; check radiator and fan condition.

I run Yokohama V701 225/45 R18 and I'm really happy with them.

Meni su tigrove univerzalne 10 godina bile odlicne dok nas nisu naterali na letnje zimske

Iako ljudi od Tigrovih guma hvale winteru, ja nisam bio preterano zadovoljan iako sam svestan da su to low cost gume, ali sam uzeo njihove letnje i skroz su mi super. Ne vozim kao penzos, mekane su mi dovoljno i skroz ok, videcemo koliko se trose.

Tires have always been the downfall of the great AWD system they have. Yoko's were the worst!

I’ve gone through 3 Geo’s in less than 20k

Fuck those shoes
