Best Uses
Comment:
These tires have good grip in dry; especially when road is summer warm. Good lateral grip through turns.<br /><br />Ride is a little rough but you feel all of the road.<br /><br />The tread wear is appauling. I wore the tires in 5-10k with nominal spirited bursts of driving(hard acceleration a few times a week).
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Comment:
Noticeably quiet ride. My Subaru Forester really quieted down after installing these.<br /><br />CU didn't like the traction in snow. I haven't yet driven in snow with them; however, I suspect that I won't see a problem, since my vehicle is all-wheel-drive.
How long have you owned it:
Three-to-six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
