These guys are being hard on them. I agree they are outclassed at the same price by other tires... but they are decent. Not worth the $$ unless you get a smokin deal. I likened them to a Toyo RA1 with about 10% more grip -- but they'd get greasy after some work on a hot day (like in a race).

Good tire, bad choice for anything more than an HPDE session.
