				Got my trade in from Kumho on my v710's great service!  Ran my victoracers one day at RA and they are coming apart just like the v710's did!  Is it me, or is something still wrong here? Take a look at this pic and let me know what you think. Sorry for the big pic, didn't know it wouldn't automatically resize. (IMG:http://69.73.156.222/victoracer.jpg) |

				I used those Yoko’s on my Honda Civic.  Yokohama recommended (for a front wheel drive car) that you reverse the normal orientation for the rear tires because the maximum torque they would see was under braking. On a rear wheel drive car, would it not be appropriate to run the front tires “backwards” since the max torque they see is under braking? |
