Sticky as all hell

Wear out fast

I've got a set of these (215/40-17 front, 245/40-17 rear) on my '95 MR2 and I can defy gravity with them. I've had them for about 6+ months and 15k miles. The rears (which wear fast on the mid engine MR2) are down to about 20% but that's not bad for a soft tire and considering the G's at which I take freeway off ramps. If you want a tire that lasts a long long time, this isn't it. If you want a tire that can make your car climb a vertical wall, this is it.

Grip,Grip,Grip.

I can't wheelspin my car anymore :-(

Amazing tyre, I would like to compare it to the other tyres I have used but this would not do it justice. It is in a league of its own.

Sure it wears out fast but these are the only thing between me and the road so I'll live with that. It does not matter how hi tech you car, if your tyres are crap then all that investment in ABS,ASC,DSC,DBC is wasted.

If you're a boy racer and like to wheel spin then this is not for you, it won't let you do this because the grip is too strong.

I would never buy another brand after using these.

Excellent dry weather grip.

Do not stand up to driving in hot weather and wear very very fast.

The S-O2's were great. Except these are not for the desert cities. I live in Lake Havasu City, AZ where summer heat is average 100% to 117%. I have four months and 4500 miles on these tires of city driving and the rear tires are worn to the built-in indicators. If you like good grip, yes they are good tires. Like some other comments, these tires are hard to break lose.

Amazingly sticky tire. Great traction in turns, even if wet. These tires included on the Honda S2000 and I can see why. They must make any car handle better.
