Customer Reviews
Delightful tire. This is my third set. Great performance: handling , braking, wet, even in the cold and light snow. Down side: forget getting 50K from a set. I drive generally quite gently and rotate religiously and monitor pressure weekly. These will be done at 30 K. While they honor the mileage warranty, these may not be a good choice if you put a lot of miles on your vehicle.
Tires are great but, get them from someone else
Great tires for the Vette!!
Great traction. Great handling. Look awesome with the wide 305s on my Camaro
