I am, and have about 12k miles on them. They have done wonderfully given they are a rebranded Bridgestone tire. They do lack somewhat in the hydroplaning department, but I fully expected that going in after seeing the tread pattern. Mine are about half life front and rear at the moment, so I don't expect them to last until ZdayZ. However, my driving habits are somewhat exaggerated compared to many others here.

I will say I much prefer the 255/40 over 245/40's on the front however. I don't like putting anything under a 255 on the front of the Z with how much weight it has to deal with.
