The car has been maintained, and is stock other than an intake.

And for the topic, I'm getting a set of these tires for summer time.

Tires are very sticky on the dry and in the wet. These tires are great for the street, but if your looking for a stiffer, better feedback tire for racing then don't buy these. They are comfortable to drive on, but the sidewalls tend to flex a little when going into a corner, giving the car that unstable feeling. Don't get me wrong, they are a "bang for the buck".

I'm gonna get them in a 225 width, so they'll probably be a bit more stable for me.

Sad day last week when I jumped into my car and started to drive away. Started to hear .....thump...thump...thump...thump.





Tire was sliced all the way through and non repairable. Had to buy another one.

No not yet, hopefully this winter. They are rated for light snow though.

Took it up to the mountains a few weeks ago after a good snow fall. They did very well on the light snow. Can't compare to any heavy snow since most of the snow was packed already from other drivers.

Did go over some icy areas and you do have to be a little more careful, since I felt some slippage.
