just picked these up at the end of last season, fantastic tire form what i ran and heard really good things about the tread life so far as well, g force where always a great tire it was the tread life that killed them but this new rubber they are using is suppose to be better all around, cars in storage so didnt drive much can give ya more info in a month or 2

will do, note that this is an uhp tire and with anything in this field you will sacrifice tread life for performance as compared to a touring tire. if you plan on doing some track this is a def one of the better tires to run but if your dd and raking up high miles, id stay away as you will not get the benefit that this tire should provide unless they are used they way they should be.
