I have them! Bought them about 2 weeks ago for my new set of rims I purchased. So far I absolutely love them. They're a good grippy tire and their performance for the price can't be matched. If you look at the reviews on them on tirerack you'll see that they are praised highly

I'm looking to get them for the front two tires. Excellent from what I've heard. There is a (2) set going on ebay currently.

Ya, so these tires definitely were delivered to me by Discount Tire Direct ($99/tire) in less than 24 HOURS. I woke up this morning to my doorbell ringing and sure enough it was my UPS guys standing at the front door asking, "Do you want some tires?" Lol, I was like WTF, since they were just processed yesterday. Anyway, I will be getting them mounted and balanced up in the City tonight and get to test them out on the twisty highway on the way home....woot! I'll let you know how they are.

Would help if you gave us a size to go along with your price requirement... you can get some pretty sweet tires for $140 if you are putting them on 13" wheels...

I have these in 235/45/17. Had them for about a month and a half and so far I have nothing but good things to say about g-Force Sport's.

Dry Handling - very good, predictable and controlled, great stability in hard cornenring
Wet Handling - very good, almost as good as in the dry, no hydroplaning, but if you really step on it it's possible to break them loose
Comfort - very good, no noise, soft (not as soft as Falken 512 but still comfortable)
Wear - outstanding, look brand new after about 3k miles, which is great for a summer tire

P.S. Looks like they went up in price, they used to be $95ea

Ive had these tires on my Beretta (225/50R15) for about 6mo and about 7k mi and LOVE the hell outa these tires. They grip really well and have worn very good. Definatly going on the Max when she needs new shoes. Snow tractions isnt bad, you just have to remember that these are summer tires, but they do grip rather good. Wet traction is outstanding. I had Nitto 450's on the 'Retta before and hated them. They were lound and wore very quick. I would reccomend the G-Force Sports to anyone looking for a well priced great performance tire.
