Yokohama S drives and the likes, after feedback

[Rice86]

Hello drift people

will be doing my first wet skid pan this weekend in my ae86

Car has Yokohama S drives 195/50/15..same as bridgestones re001s and the likes..
Car is just a 16v bigport NA, standard

i have tested these in the rain once or twice and they are nice when sliding, but to be honest they still hold a lot of grip in the wet,
Just want to know if they will be fine for wet skid pan days or should i bring something with less grip just in case?

i know its my choice but would like some feedback from you drifters also

Nice! It's my first time at the creek so I'm doing wet skid pan to build confidence up, I'll be the one driving the green multi colour hachi

Yes night time too

Just putting it out there if anyone is interested, the S drives are magic to slide with in the wet.. i didnt even bother changing to my skid pair, the tyres would step out and i would be in control from start to stop.

thanks mate, i was a bit intimidated being my first time drifting so i just kept to myself all night and it was cold as so i just sat in my car most of the time lol.

[s13 james]

fair enough,car looks good,should lower just that little more to get rid off that gap,the watta's look sweet

[Rice86]

Thanks aye, your car looks amazing in real life as the pictures on the forum. Clean and mean lol

Excellent front tyre. nice stiff side wall with good square shoulder- gives great initial turn in response.

on the rear also great until you get down to the last 15-20% then they seem to loose their grip.

ran em on my mx5 at vicdrift round 2. 190rwkw mx5 is 1020kg ish. was running em at 18psi on the rear.
