I recently bought some tires from my friend, that he bought last month for 600.00 installed, and some other little things. The model is, a 550 v and I cant seem to find these anywhere on the internet but tread is 90 percent or better and he had them on his 01 lude stocks. and doesnt drive aggressively I paid 350 for them and now have decided to sell. the tread looks aggressive as hell but cant seem to find and im thinkin of sellin to get some 17s anyway. So if someone is interested or could please find me a link to these it would be greatly appreciated. (I have driven his car as well with these on the ride is smooth and they grip good very well and I have driven on parada 2 and many azenis etc.)
Thanks,
James

I was just at a local NTB tire store getting an alignment, and guess what tires they had there on the display rack in the showroom? Yokohama 550V s! The center of the tread pattern is similar to the Yoko AVS. They are available in a pretty wide range of sizes, including low profile sizes (45 and less). They are mostly V and Z speed rated. But the 550V s are actually all-season tires. So if you get snow in your area, and you don't want to have two sets of wheels for summer/winter, these might be worth looking into. But if you want performance tires, there are probably better Ultra high performance summer tire choices out there...
