Can you give us me a link? Is this a specific "brand" of tire, sounds like a speed rating to me.

I must tell you I am not real impressed with tread pattern for a Summer tire. There are far too many blocks and tread grooves on the outter edge of tire to be very good on hard corners it seems to me. I cannot find ANY info anywhere about treadwear, compound or reviews.

What do they cost? Is it only available as a "package" with wheels? I would ask CC to send you a link to manufacturer or a phone number so some more info can be attained.

OK, cool

I like the Proxes 4 over the S-series.
