Mercedes Benz S65 AMG Tire Review Highlights

Writing about the Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD08R given 47% (265-40-18-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 4000 average miles
Needs tons of heat to develop initial grip and losses grip when cooled down abruptly. Very poor grip and handling on wet when paired with powerful rear wheel drive (too hard sidewall cannot transfer torque properly).
Absolutely terrible in wet, literally zero resistance to aquaplanning, not enough groove pattern.
Gives great feeling and handling in corners when hot which is the only advantage. In other case completely useless on regular road or in wet. I recommend to use only on track without any moisture.
