    Discount Tire - Goodyear GT vs Yokohama

    Well i went to Discount to get some 205/50/16 and these were the two they had available. The Goodyear was about 112 each and the Yokohama was 140 each. Being price concious i went with the Goodyear. Big mistake, the Goodyear sticks out wayyy to much giving the car a "beefy" look. Terrible...

    I went back the next day to return the tires for the yokos, but i made the mistake of going at 5:30 when they close at 6! I could see dissapointment on their face but happily made the exchange for me. I told the guy at the counter..

    "hey thank everyone back there for doing this so close to closing time, i know these guys want to get home for the fourth but it was just grinding at me having these tires on my car"

    Well they got it done in like 20 mins flat! They had 3 guys crakkin at it.

    NE ways, to make a long story short, im much happier with the yokos

    First 2 pics are Goodyear, last two are yokos!

    So you're saying that 205 50 16 Goodyears are actually bigger than the Yokohamas? Hmm.

      Yes it would appear that the Goodyears are wider!

            They look identical to me. I'd have gone with the GY because they're cheaper. How's the treadwear?

              the goodyears look like they have a rim protector on them. Yeah, good choice w/ the Yokos, I recently put some Yokohama S-Drives on my car. WAY grippier than a BFG G force Sport. Only cost me 78 bucks since I work for discount so i got a fatty discount.
