I have them on my Z06. The first thing I noticed was no more front tire chatter making the tight turn out of my driveway. The ride is fine and I like their wet weather traction. Not enough cold days here but we do have a few that dip below 40 so there's some comfort knowing these will be fine. I only have 2K miles on the tires so far.

Got mine put on last week and have about 300 miles on them. As said the tire chatter in tight turns pretty much gone. The ride is fine even in Sport mode. For the street I think they are a great compromise as I don’t think they can be pushed to their limit safely. Also no worries about temps or wet roads 👍🏻

I have all 4 seasons where I live, and these tires work great in the wet and cold... I go back to a more performance oriented tire for the summer, but come fall I'll be back on them...

I love them. I use them mainly late fall through the winter as I have r888rs for the summer. I also swap them out for long roadtrips as they are quiet, handle well and most importantly are a runflat. They saved my butt with a cracked rim that decided to get a small leak on a Sunday night in rural Oklahoma. Will always have a set around. Are they the best performing? NO. I don't need them to grab the HP I have when I travel. I want them for cold, wet, and peace of mind.
