Thoughts

I bought them to replace the Michelins on the GSR rims I had. The main problem occurred on highways with cement and grading (lines down the lane to prevent sliding in wet weather). The damn grooves on the tires would catch on the lines in the cement, and the car would feel like it was catching on the grooves (which are not perfectly straight). I found myself avoiding those lanes. It was not dangerous, but really annoying. It was fine on other surfaces, but horrible on cement highways

You'd better live in rural areas to get these.
