I think they are an incredible value. The dry grip (in warmer weather) is outstanding in aggressive driving, turn-in is decent and they are fairly quiet. The treadwear rating is good as well and the only complaints I have are:
1. Wet traction is not as good as expected - nearly on par with the POS P6000s that came with the car.
2. I was hoping that these tires would eliminate 2nd gear traction problems but I can still spin one tire pretty easily. I'm hoping this has to do with the temperature range of the tire (e.g. soft rubber which typically performs better at warmer temps) as it has been pretty chilly here in New England.
Overall, I would probably buy them again or alternatively, take a look at the Falkez Azenis or if desiring to spend some more, the GS-D3s.
