Excellent Starter tire ... but doesn't measure up to the newer tires. The Hankook R-S3 is getting some good reviews

Jason, I think we underestimated the tiredness of the tires. Here is how the fronts looked at the end of Sun.

My order is already placed.
Thank you again for taking the time to help me on Sun, I really appreciate it.

I just couldn't pass up the $45/ea price tag.

There are some benefits to being on stock 16" wheels.

Besides, with my limited experience, I probably wouldn't be able to optimally make use of really sticky tires anyway.

Those would make a great hipo street tire. Sizes on either side of what I need for the 335 or I'd be slapping some on the Bimmer.

Prices aren't really that much lower, but maybe they will go down soon. Also on closeout, Yokohama AD07's
