Tires For M45 Sport

I walked into Discount Tire today to get a few quotes on tires for my car. I was recommened this:

Yokohama YK580

Has anyone tried or familar with this tire? Let me know what you all think. Thanks.

I have not heard of that tire before so I jumped on tirerack to see what they had to say and they don't even list that tire. I think that answers all my questions there.... find something else.

YOKO makes the YK580 only for Discount Tire.
They also make a similar tire only for Tire Kingdom.
Several years ago I would looking at AVIDS and noticed that YOKO had similar tires for both companies. I called YOKO at the time and was advised to buy the cheapest cause they were all about the same. I ended up with the regular AVIDS.
Now, I'm looking at putting Envigors on my wife's G35X....but, I'm considering the YK580's. If you check the YOKO sight for tires that fit your car, it probably won't show the YK580's.....It didn't for mine, but if you search the site, it will come up.
The YOKO site rates the YK580 higher in all categories over the Envigors, but it's the YOKO site. I'll probably call YOKO and talk with somebody there before deciding, but I'm leaning toward the YK580's now. The tread pattern reminds me of my Conti DWS that I have on my G coupe.
BTW, found your thread searching for YK580 threads....

Since your car is on stock wheels...why not get the Goodyear Assurance ComforTred Touring tires? 80k rated mileage and specs better than the DWS.
