Did you try searching? Quite a few members have these tires and have commented on them.

I have these tires on my car and I love them. They are good *** tires but a little slippery in the rain. I have 18's with 235/40/18 and I have no other complaints about them. The tred wear is good on them also, they where rated really well when I bought them about a year back so thats why I went with them. Next tire I am going with will be Toyo Proxi's I think.

Running 235/40/18"s myself. Pretty good tires not much handling in the rain but it seems to handle really well. There are some areas where if I floored it on my old tires the car would slide and I would loose control not with these bad boys. Very very good control and handling. I'll check out wet handling next time it rains. Last time I tried doing some tricks I completely forgot I had a couple of 6 packs in the back! All I heard was glass bottles smashing hard into each other, at least nothing broke

The treadware also seems to be good but I understand they only get about 30K miles? I would have gotten the Potenzas but there are a couple of days a year down here where snow traction is important.
