Hey Roger and ibub,,, how you likin my post I made earlier? I'm loving mine so far, no, they're not gonna give you the handling of true performance tire, but they're a lot cheaper, last a lot longer, will be a lot better in rain, have a good warranty, and are good performance wise as far as all-seasons go. I had vibrations while braking and for some reason, when I got these tires, it went away. The ride is real good, and I'm still breaking them in and want to get a RSTB before I really push them. They feel a lot different than the nittos I had, so I gotta get used to them before knowing how far I can push them. Also toying with air pressure. Running 39 in front and 37.5 in back, seems to be good.
Anybody got something to say about how they are when pushed to their limits? Will they let you know before they lose all their grip? I mean like will you hear them squealing before you crash or are you just gonna crash?
contours, deloreans & fiats, oh my!
