Terrible tires do not buy.
Have less than 10000 miles on the tires and one is completely bald. The others are not. Must have been defective. Waste of my money.

Horrible tires
Very disappointed in these tires. Had 2 sets of tires sent out both defective from the manufacturer. Simpletire was able to get it squared away and got me a refund, this isn't their fault however I'd suggest removing these from the site.

So far these tires are great.
These tires look great, are so quiet I can hear the radio in my c5 convertible. Handling is excellent for my use on the street. I'm very happy with my purchase and Simpletire. I would get these again. Thank you Simpletire for the excellent service!

You get what you pay for.
I absolutely love working with simple tire so this review does not reflect them. It is only directed to the tires. I made a choice to go with a more affordable tire to get me through the rest of summer/fall. I am doing this review 7 months later so keep that in mind. These tires have awful grip they roll in curves they made my car feel like a complete different car in a bad way, they do terrible in the rain it throws me all over the road hydroplanes terribly, and the worst part of all is how loud they are now that that are worn they are so loud I can't even hold a conversation on Bluetooth because no one can hear me. When I say they are loud I mean they are LOUD. Now keep in mind this is coming from someone that was used to performance tires previously but I cheaped out and went with these to get me through a little bit longer. So with that being said they actually aren't bad I haven't had any issues with them coming apart or leaving me hanging. If you are someone that doesn't drive a lot and you are looking for an affordable tire then absolutely but if you are someone like me who does a lot of driving just be prepared and don't expect too much performance from these tires because you will be disappointed. I am satisfied they served their purpose for what I needed them for.
