They are. I've used them in another application. Still better than the primacies IMO but wouldn't choose them for the 86...

If you track it and/or like to 'press on' regularly then I suspect the Yokohamas are still a good choice, or have you been dissatisfied with them?

What kind of driving and what expectancy do you have?

The answer is, not very good compared to the V105's:

Any reason why you want to fit eco tyres?

V105s:

Yoko's but after your phone call with me the other day you seemed to be a bit disappointed by the wear on them. I reckon it was due to your tracking being out. 

I've got the Dunlop Sportmaxx RT on at the mo and they are sticky, can't really comment on wear on them thus far. Sportmaxx RT 2's are out now, could give them ago or the Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3's 

No point going budget with tyres really, they could ultimately save your life.

Would I be right in thinking you have 18's on your car? If so, I would champion these: http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Vredestein/Ultrac-Vorti.htm

You'll struggle to find a better value for money tyre, especially when looking at reviews. From personal experience I can vouch for them. I use them on every car I own.
