Talk about two totally different impressions from the same tire!!! I am more puzzled than ever...Well I have about 13,000 on the tires that came with the car and so I guess I will stick with them for another year at least..and then some of the dealers offer to let you change whatever tire you buy if you dont like it...so that is the route i will go..

I know what you mean, I was really hoping to be happier with these tires. All the reviews from the discount tire site compelled me to buy them, 4.5 stars out of what looked like 100's of reviews. Anyway, the softer tire wall might be the deal breaker for me, I'm really surprised how much the car's characteristic changed. Then again, I haven't given them a chance, but that is my initial impression. I also forgot to mention how ugly they are...I never thought I would say that about a tire, but from the side it looks too busy and off road-ish.
