You mean like comparing A052 in say a mustang or a WRX vs on the BRZ/86? If thats what you mean I dont see the point in knowing how well they work on other cars. Good tires are good tires and heavier cars will always punish tires more than lighter cars. FWD and AWD will always abuse the fronts more than RWD.

Driving style? The yokos are a bit vague at the limit, similar to the Nittos NT01 and very different from the RE71R. They are fast, if you can generate and maintain a somewhat high slip angle thru the whole corner, faster than anything in the 100-200 TW game currently.
