For what kind of driving? That particular tire is rated about mid-pack in the second tier of performance all-seasons. Doesn't do anything badly or exceptionally well, so it doesn't play in the same ballpark as Michelin's PS AS3, GY's Asymmetric AS, or Continental's DWS.

It appears to be a decent enough tire for moderate-paced driving, but probably not very satisfying to drive hard, only getting "average" marks for wet driving and overall handling. Probably a little off each of those performances is what got traded away for that 60,000 mile guarantee and the fuel efficiency claims that are being made for it.
