Nice tires, improved handling overall. Great grip in curvy mountain roads at *high* speed. Have yet to see these tires hydroplane, and I've run them through pouring mountain rain at 70+. Haven't drag raced them yet, so I can't say on that. Cost me $132 ea. They are all-weather rated and have a high mileage rating (320) for a z-speed tire, traction and temp. are both rated at "A." Look great on my 17x7 rims. This tire and rim combo won't mess up your speedo when replacing the stock 16" rims with 205/55/16's.
Adder :D lol, I did find that hydroplane speed: in a 90 degree sweeper uphill curve I hit some fairly deep, fast running water crossing the highway at about 78 mph this evening. It is at this moment you truly love awd DSMing!

Thanks for the review. I think this tire represents the best value for most DSMers in the market for an ultra high performance all season tire.

I used to have a set of Pirelli's but went with Dunlop W-10's this time big mistake the Pirelli hade alot more grip at the drags lost almost a full tenth off my 0-60 times with the Dunlops highly recomend the Pirelli's.
