Yokohama Ride & Drive with Scion FR-S ( pics & NOW VIDS )
 
I have the pleasure of working at Yokohama's plant and every year the do a Ride & Drive for the employees and dealers. It was my first year doing it, but this year they had 4 Scion FR-S each with Enkei rims and 4 different sets of tires.

Awesome. I like Yokohama. Lucky to see 4 FR-S first time doing that event.

I wish someone would have taken pics of the fitment stickers inside the wheels and the tire sizes.

Which one performed the best with the different tires?

Wow, cool set up; I would love to experience all of those variables. But how about some impressions? 'specially the ad08s. Also where they all filled to recommended PSI or tinkered with?

I have vids i took watching people drive. I'm just having a hard time getting them uploaded.

The tires where 225/45/17's i have no idea about fitment or the what the psi was set to and it was not tinkered with.

They all performed great. We started with car number 1 then went to 2 and so on. Each car was a step up from the previous one.

The ad08s performed the best, when you turned the wheel the car turned they had great response and grip.

That's why I love the AD08s. IMO they have the best turn in and steering response of any street tire I've ever used.
