Comment:
I replaced the standard Michelin Diamaris with the Yoko's, but also went from standard 20" rims to 18", as well as narrower tyre widths. Noise and tramlining were dramatically improved with no noticable drop in grip (not that the X5 is ever pushed hard), but I do have an issue with wear on the insides of the rears. Putting the Diamaris back on soon to see if it's a tracking issue or tyre strength problem - hoping it's tracking, I really like these tyres.
