Re: [DML] Yokohama Tires (was dealers)

[Mark Noeltner <mark@xxxx>]

The Yokohama AVS Intermediate is the one you want. That model has both the
195/60-14 and the 235/60-15 needed for the DeLorean. 

Very few tires from any manufacturer have both the front and rear DeLorean
sizes available. You want to stay with a matched set of 4 for best
handling. Having different levels of grip on the front and back can cause
problems when driving in bad weather, or at the limit on dry pavement. If
you don't drive near the limit, or in bad weather, then it won't matter much.

I can't really comment on the 2nd best, as I haven't tested anything other
than the Yokohama on my DeLorean. Other tires that I really like aren't
available in the sizes needed.
