As far as having good tires this specific type is one of the best. I have used alot of different types and styles of tires. So far the thunderer r101 has good grip, tread, and feels good on the road. Smooth and quiet. As for the vehicle I put them on it feels like I put new shocks on it. And so far the tires haven't dropped 1 psi in 2 months.
