Yokohama Geolanders

Perhaps it's the fact that they are brand new.. but:

Dry traction / handling in my opinion was very poor. It was start to roll before I even got really into it. I guess I needed to run higher PSI, but then that would increase my understeer, so catch22 there.

However, the tire TOTALLY made up for it's lack of dry handling today. It was raining like hell all day and half the roads are flooded. Where I took turns and saw my DSC flash on my Michelin Energy's, I didn't feel a thing on the Yokohama Geolanders. I'm down with losing some dry performance with the massive gain I have in wet. I feel very stable taking turns in the wet at speeds I would slide in on the Michelin Energys!

Plus the tread on the Geolanders looks sweeter
