For me though, the principle remains - if Lotus and Yokohama have gone to the trouble of designing a tyre specifically for the Elise, then it seems crazy not to fit it! Unless of course you want a specific tyre, such as a winter snow tyre or a high grip track tyre.

As an ex businessman, my reaction to a "specially made tyre " is to suspect that its a marketing exercise by Lotus to get a royalty payment. "You sell this tyre only through our dealers, we'll tell customers its specially made and we'll both make a decent margin". Its what I would do if I ran Lotus.
