Hi, Have always kept with original OEM Yokohamas and struggling to find new that are available in the next week or two. Any 16'' Front part worn. Drivers side right hand is a must. I have a puncture repaired left that will do me for the wait. Cheers in advance Steve

If you are adamant staying with the AO22's then good luck.

Sorry I can't help, but when I looked at new tyres recently there were no OEM's available anywhere in the UK for Yoko/Bridgestone/Dunlop.

Mark at Dali could get the Bridgestones but not a full set of Yoko's.

Most people go for either Goodyear Eagle F1's or Bridgestone RE040/RE050's.
The Bridgestone combination seems very honest to the original RE010's.

How are the 040/050's doing, I meant to ask you at Japfest.

As above they feel very similar to the RE010's that I have run for the last 20k miles or so.

Impressed and I will be putting the same on my OEM wheels.
Roughly £300 a set fitted.

Steve,

I may have sold my rims complete with tyres. If not then I may be able to help with front AO22's that have only covered 2k miles.

Hi, Mark at Dali sent me some new rears a couple of months ago and I thought I didn't need the fronts until I checked the dreadead inner walls!!! Will look to change when I get through this final set. Cheers Steve

Recently tried to stick 040/050 combo on mine.

My trusty local tyre shop (no really, they are stars) phoned Brigestone for them. On hearing 'twas for the NSX they said "no can do - not suitable - for MR2 only & we're stopping them soon".

BS?

If you look on the Bridgestone website it states that they don't have any tyres suitable for the 16"/17" wheeled NSX anymore.

However............

I have tried both the F1's and 040/050 combination and I know what I will be sticking with.

Simon,

Could you PM me the number I will need new rubber on a set I am buying. Or was that a one time deal?

Cheers,
