Yoko a539/ yoko a048r/ dunlop sp2000 cant choose i like the tread pattern and style of the a048r but dnt know what they will be like in the wet.

Had my Yoko's A32R's for 2 years now, but the mini does only do about 1500 miles each year.

I'm a Yoko man but never liked the 539's I had them on a rover coupe and it was like a pig in a passage squealing all over the place... I would go for the 32R's With a car with no ABS etc I would want as mch grip as poss only my opinion.

I know nobody likes Falken tyres but I have had them on my clubman for 2 years and I have covered over 18,000 miles and I bet there is at least another 4000 left, so for me I would buy them again, I had a set of Yoko street slicks and they lasted 5 months, garbage but they did stick like hell

I love falkens too really good wear on a road mini & mega cheap too:)

I like yoko`s too but ive worn a set of them out in a night

But the Sp`s seem to be abit of both they have good grip & dont wear to fast but thats why they cost do much.
