I have just completed another weekend with my TR4 and continued to play with the tire pressures. I can see no appreciable tire wear from a 2 day weekend. These tires are too hard. Let me know when y

I'm pretty sure that's the case, the Yokos sold in the USA are also made here. It's actually a separate company, Yokohama Tire corp instead of Yokohama Rubber Corp. http://www.yokohamatire.com I bel

My local guy says they come from Japan. Wouldn't be the first thing that's made in Japan but not sold there. Unfortunately the Yokohame Australia website is "under construction". Wes Dayton

I would think that the lack of DOT approval would keep Yokohama from producing that tire for sales here in the USA through the bigger vendors. Why can't we get a specialty tire supplier to import a c

That sounds a lot like the Dunlop D84J. I have a problem with the fronts overheating at TWS and going off. The front right did the same thing at Hallet, too many hard lefts! OTOH, we have a lot of pe

If the 60 series tires are not DOT approved for some reason, that might explain why they aren't sold here. Where in the US does one even buy a non-DOT tire ? Even the Hoosiers are DOT, AFAIK. Randal
