I now run Yoko S Drives, great tires I might add. Before these Yoko's I had Hankooks and they were the worst tires I've ever had on a performance car. They're cheaply made Chinese tires. Quality tires are made in the US or Japan. If I were trying to save money on something for my Boxster, I wouldn't cut corners on tires. Use the $3 Turtle wax car wash instead of the $13 Griot's Garage.
