Solid Summer Tire
These were replacements for the rears on my C5 Corvette. While straight line traction was good and the cornering grip was everything I needed out of a dedicated tire, I blasted through them in about 8,000 miles. Maybe it's my driving style, maybe a 320 tread wear isn't enough for my needs. But for what they promised to be, they delivered quite well.

The absolute all around tire. Looks aggressive and ready for action from the back, looks classy and sporty from the side. Handles sensationally and can handle spirited driving for extended periods of time.

The grip you get to the road on a nice sunny day is amazing with these tires especially on bends and sharp turns. There is a little bit of noise but that's every car, just turn on some music two clicks and you won't hear it
