Tire: Yokohama W.drive
Size: 215/45/17 on stock rims
Location: Bavaria/Germany
Driver: All Toyotas for 12 years, this being first RWD

I like the Yokohamas, very good grip on dry and cold surfaces, slush terrain naturally harder but still manageable with a calm steering wheel and foot, not to say well manageable. Already had an almost crash at around 200km/h with VSC Sport enabled, tires didnt even lose grip when having to swerve towards the railing on the left and swerving back into lane... very nice grip!
On steeper slopes they couldnt really do much, but mostly due to the lack of weigth on the rear axis and ice under the snow. Still made it with alot of effort, though

All in all, very very good winter tires for the GT86!
