Don't have them

But have heard that they are great tires. Personally, I have Kumho Ecsta 712's....good tire for the money and no complaints with them.

If you are strapped for cash, I'd recommend them in the same bracket as Yokohama A520's IF not slightly better on wear characteristics, real good wet weather handling.

I have these on my K1s and they rock:



They are 225/50/16 and they are great. I am looking to set up my 16/15 set with some Azenis Sports. I hear nothing but good things about them.

Talking about snow. I bought some Michelin snow tires for cheap for a drift event thinking they would be great.

They sucked. They gripped the whole time and didn't smoke at all.

I will be getting a set for the winter
