Well...just put on new Dunlop SP Sport A2's

I got them for $370 installed, thankfully I looked around here before I had them installed and found that Sears would price-match tirerack.com and they honored the price for it.

I had Douglas POS tires on there and they were wearing on the outside really good so I got new ones. The old tires did wear really evenly for the most part at least. There is a little bit of a vibration in the steering wheel now so I get to have them re-balance the things. Problem with Sears is they are S-L-O-W. Takes them forever to do anything. Oh well...at least I got a deal. I saved like $60 off the Sears price (they were on sale). I wasn't going to go to Sears originally, but a local place and find out what it would cost to have them installed if I bought them online, but it was easier since Sears actually price-matched. Unfortunately, took a look at brakes while the wheels were off and going to need front pads soon. It never ends! hehe

Anyway, I read good things about this tire and I hope it does me good. I'm not super aggressive when I'm driving, though I do tend to push my car once and a while for fun so the wear on the tires shouldn't be too bad. Thanks for all the feedback that I didn't have to ask for since the search function is working again

I got some also. I get a vibration at about 75 mph but I think it's because the retard at Sears that was installing them (took him 3 BLOODY HOURS!!!) didn't know WTF he was doing. I haven't had a chance to take it back in and get it re-balanced yet.
