Well I read nothing but good reviews on them and did a little research before buying them, I dug the tread pattern and they are V-rated @149 mph. I will take some pics with them on and post them....

Very smooth ride, and excellent cornering. Coming home this morining I took a pretty good curve @75mph and didnt touch the brake, they grab really well. (my sway bar in the back also helps a bunch)
