Got these tires on my Camry, and they were decent for about 40k miles. The wet traction really went downhill after that, which was disappointing because I rotate and align my tires like clockwork. I won't get anywhere near the 70k mile warranty, maybe just under 50k. Not bad for the price, but I wouldn't buy them again. If you're looking for a tire with longer-lasting wet traction, maybe look elsewhere.

What is bad?
Generally good but dont last as long as Id hoped. They get hard to balance and start vibrating at certain speeds. Once the tread wears down they get loud too. The rolling resistance is low so thats a plus for fuel efficiency. But if youre looking for something with more durability you might want to check out other options. Theyre okay for regular city driving but not great for high-performance needs.
