yoko db e70 have lasted me 54000kms, there is still a bit of tread on the rear wheels but the front are close to gone. so instead of buying rims+tyres cus i couldnt find any suitable to my liking.
today i bought these, i know they arent the best for mileage but i think its becus i told the fella i didnt want to compromise on grip and safety :D hence the decision.

They are an excellent tyre although fast wearing due to soft compound, a frien of mine has them on his F6 Tornado. I doubt you will be able to reach their limits due to the power output of our CU2's. I got a set of the newly releasled Goodyear F1 Directionals last friday for $1114.00 fitted & balanced.

got the tyres fitted today, they feel great but gotta wait 50kms before they set in properly, cant wait to see whats it like around corners,
they mechanic was really impressed with the euro / Honda, and was very impressed at how the even the tread wear were (thanks to me hahaha)

235/45x18 98W. Goodyear have a special at the moment - buy 4 new tyres & pay for 3.
