RS-3's are almost entry-level competition tires - a similar car on those would run away from you at autocross and walk away on a road course, at least until the RS-3 treads wore out. That would have been an amazing find.

I really expected to hear "other", as in performance all-seasons or lower on the food chain.

They were pushing all seasons really hard because "it's your wife's car" to which I had to straighten them out that she drives better and faster than most guys I know.

Surprisingly enough, scored them at discount tire.
