Have about 2500 miles on these tires. They were easier/better than expected to balance; took less that 2.0 oz per side to balance. They have a great high-quality look and ride to match. So far, they have exceeded my expectations, which as a BMW X5 owner, is hard to do. Too early to tell about the tread life and/or the winter traction.
My summary measure for any product is 'value'. So far, these tires are a better value than any tire I have owned.

I bought these to replace both my rear Bridgestone run flats on my Z4 that were damaged after a puncture thinking it may be ok since I'm not racing around with them. What a mistake. Maybe because these are non run flats their sidewalls are softer. The plus side is that when you go over small bumps it's not so harsh but the handling at 80 mph or higher feels scary and floating. The steering at slightly over 60 mph feels imprecise and feels like the car is unstable and almost wanders from left to right. Even in sport mode it's not much better. I wish I could return these. It makes the car terrible to drive. I would not recommended them at all.
