May take a whack at replacing the motor mounts in the Focus this season as well. Everything vibrates rough at idle. Won't feel bad breaking a $3000 sedan. Good practice hahahaha

They came on my Cobalt and were abysmal during the winter. Had the "ultra" performance all-seasons. Switched to Nitto Invo's during the summer and Blizzaks for the winter. Never looked back.

Did you have the Kuhmo Ecsta ASX or whatever? I had them too, sidewall was way too soft. Same with the Continental DWS, which was the highest rated all season at one point, but they drove terrible in my opinion.

Kuhmo's summer tires aren't bad but they're noisy.

They may have been. I honestly don't remember. Swapped them out the moment summer came around. I remember the road noise was horrible and they didn't take bumps well.

DWS06 > DWS

Night and day difference. Not so much on the soft sidewalls they are still soft.
I much prefer driving on my S04's in da summer or RE11's.
