I have looked at them. I was unable to find very many people that are satisfied with them. Most people I have talked with that ran them said they would never buy them again. Problems ranged from sidewalls blowing out, to tread separating, poor road manners, short wear (15k), and loud. By far the most common one I've come across is sidewall failures. The problems got worse on vehicles that towed or carried loads.

Yep, I've heard a lot about the sidewall failures also.

I've owned a set of those POS tires.
Bought 5 tires and three of them had a failure. One torn sidewall and two blow-outs. Didn't keep the tires long enough to try and wear off the tread. My life is worth more than a set of tires.
