OK, now that the OEM tires are not available any more what is the most suitable replacement. As a set and as a pair, yes my fronts are almost new and the rears are almost warn out. I know you should not mix tires but I am not going to replace all four so what would be the best rears to go with the Yoko OEM 15" fronts.
 
I just put a set of the Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Specs on my 95, and after 500 miles they are awesome. The front is a 205/50 R16, but no problems with rubbing or TCS at all. The rears come in the stock 17 in. size. The problem is they are different than your yokohamas, but I am really only quoting what I have read. Both the Kumho ecsta xs and Dunlop recomended replacing all four at once. I had yokohama s. drives on before, and they are ok, but not the performance tire you are used to. Hope this helps.
