They do not impress me, but I admittadly am hard to please. I have driven vehicle with those tires, but would never own them. Here is how they compare to its category.

Goodyear had a new tire come out that will fit our cars. Not the HP's... I can't think of the name of them, but I have heard nothing but positive. The HP's were much better than the RS-A's, and the new ones are much better than the HP's. If anyone knows the name, help me out here.

Hydroedge?
I have RS-A's on my car and they are garbage. The treadwear rating is really low. And they are NOT all season tires as they claim. The damn things are downright dangerous with a light cover of snow on the roads.
I'd look at either another tire, or getting a cheap set of rims and snow tires for yourself.

I don't know... have you looked at the new F1's.... Top rated tire for the money, hands down. Check tirerack if you don't believe me. And yes, they make them in the 205/55/16 set. My uncle has them on his Vet, and they handle like a dream!!!! So quiet too.
The Vet obviously doesn't use that size though

RS-A's suck. The police cars down here run them, and they get about 10-12k on a set of them before they are worn out. They are overpriced junk!
