just so you know they dont make the avs es100 in a 275 anymore. i just found this out when i went to get a new set for the front. you would have to get the new line which is called the "S drive". but i would say i like them just as much as the GS-D3's i had before.

I recently spoke with a Yokohama customer service rep...The AVS ES 100 line is discoutinued, and the S-Drive is the replacement. I had a set of the ES100s on my Z-28 for a while. Good tire.
