They are the Sessanta Ultracs. I cannot say too much about the tires yet. I have been pretty gentle on them and I have only driven about 20-30 miles with them. They do seem to have decent traction and run very smooth. As far as road noise, they may be a little smoother than the GY F1s, but, I have not noticed a large difference.

Thanks everyone!
