They look good, but i tried them and got no traction what so ever. And i have full suspension. Glad they work for you though.

My dad really likes them on his Grand Prix GTP, they are very nice driving tires.

My wife has them on her GTP and liked them at first. Too bad they only lasted a year. Now they slip and slide all over the place.

We're getting her something different this fall.

I was planning on getting those for the winter, since they have a light snow rating. I ran G-Force Sports last winter, what a mistake. Couldn't even get up my driveway in 3" of snow

Interesting... i noticed they are dryrotting a little now but they are still great driving tires


And as for the snow question, they are awesome in the snow, on FWD at least.

My wife's tires are dryrotting bad too and they aren't even a full year old!

She loved them in the snow last winter, and never had any problems. Much better than the Goodyear junk she had before.

Not sure what to get next, but they have to be all-season....oh, she want them to look cool too.LOL
