I've had these tires for about the past 4 months. When I first got these on I was like damn. Now that they are worn in I am like HOLY SHIT!!! I love these ****ing tires and they handle really well in dry and wet. I have pushed these tires through some turns ranging from 85-110mph and they have yet to break and keeps me planted on the ground. I recommend to all.

I guess running one event couldn't hurt too much. A couple things I need to do is upgrade my brake pads(prolly next weekend) and replace my clutch slave cylinder, get a camber kit, alignment and install my rear ST sway bar.

Don't give up on the 5th gen mang, surely it's night a day when it comes to comfort compared to Mariah, handling and speed will come once you get the mods done, don't trip foo. I'm sure you weren't impressed with Mariah when she was stock. Oh, and it's horrendous:fawk:

These are the tires you got??? Nice!!! Yeah man, I put a few miles on em today, took a couple turns kind of aggressively and so far i'm loving em. Very quiet, very smooth, I can't really guage how sticky they are cause i'm not pushing em yet, but my initial impression is very good. And they looks so damn aggressive from the side, I like

They're alright, I have some 205/60R15's on the '7. I don't really care for them (probably because they are 60 series) but they are nice and cheap.

I had them on my stock 15s and they are great tires. Paid $360 mounted and balanced at sears 3 years ago when I didnt know any better. Wear on them is fair and they handle very well. I have 512s on my 17s and they wear like a mofo.

i got the 512s (225/45/17) and i am very happy with them. i am impressed with the wet/torrential traction the most. they ride really smooth, and they are extremely quiet at all speeds...i've had mine for about 6 month and there really doesn't seem to be any wear yet, im even running them in the snow now.
