What is good?
Nice traction, smooth ride and apparently good treadwear
What is bad?
Nothing so far
Comments
These tires are a bargain at the price. They have performed as well as the original factory tires and seem to be giving much more life. They have already surpassed the mileage on the original factory tires with lots of tread to go. Can’t go wrong!
