[Southern States] Questions bout 2 tires and looking for anopinion.. try this again!
Well, I cannot offer you direct experience or comparison, so take this in
the 'for what it is worth' column...
I had Yokohama 356H4 185/60/14 on the GTi years back, and loved them... They
are not a super sprot tire, but they are pretty damn good, esp. for the
money... I like Yokohamas, and I would buy another set... I had a pair of
A509s (I think), very sticky, very good grip in dry, but 25K miles, they were
gone (more of a lead foot in those days)... I have Dunlop A2Sport (I think),
same size, and I really like them a lot, in all weather, except for one
thing... They seem to wander a little bit on the straights, which is
irritating in OK, as there are many, not as bad as KS though... :-)
Anyways, hopefully that helps...
