Where can I find Yokohama AVID 17" tyres?

[billfrombyron]

Hello all, I am new here.

I am specifically looking for 225/45/17 Z rating.

If I remember correctly, I need the A rating for temp in this area right?

I was living in Al Ain last year when I picked up some Avid tyres for my skoda. I love these things and now I am in need of another set.

Since moving to Duabi I can't seem to find anything. If someone could provide me with a contact and directions for the directionally challenged it would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Thanks,

-Bill

BTW why do you need ZR tires on a Skoda?

GTtwinCam,

Thanks! Unfortunately they are out of stock for the next 2 weeks or more.

Anyone have any recommendations for a good replacement set in the same class?

I had roadstones when I got the car, and they were great, but tread life was garbage. I commute from JLT to Abu Dhabi daily, so I want something that keeps up with the traffic, handles good and no noise.

The Yokohama AVID did this beautifully.

Open to Ideas. Its for my 2005 Skoda Superb.

Try Sumitomo HTRZ II, light on the pocket and performs great. A member here (Rogue) bought them, try sending him a PM about them.
