I ran them for a couple summers. Decent if you are moving up from some crappy all seasons, but for the discerning enthusiast, maybe not precisely what you want. I found they lacked ultimate grip compared to the Yoko A520s I ran before them. When the 712s died, I found a set of Michelin Pilot Sports that are much better, but it is reflected in the price.
I've heard mutterings from others complaining that some of their 712s were out of round!
That said, a friend is currently running the Kuhmo MVX or whatever it's called, and he likes them.
