Reply to "I need new tires..."

I ordered Yokohama Avid H4s front and rears. $360 out the door price from America's Discount local branch. Costco offers the Bridgestone Potenza 950 in the same front rear combo (205/60/15 x 185/65/15). I wanted to keep the tread pattern similar and these are the only tires offered in a high-performance all-season tire. There were no "summer" high-performance tires that could be ordered with front/rear similar patterns, other than the Toyo, offered by Les Schwab. Schwab charged a lot more than the other two, and does not offer Yokohamas. The Toyo might have been in the running, but I didn't want to pay what Schwab wanted. FWIW, I spent many hours on Tire Rack to get the information I needed to make a decision.

How will the Yokos handle? I haven't a clue. I don't have a lead foot, so I would hope they will be okay. I'll give you my impressions after I get the tires installed and it stops raining.
