Bought a set to replace worn Goodyear Vivas. These are much quieter, seem to ride better and give more of a sporting feel. The car feels more planted and stable than before. Very happy with these so far (~500 miles or so) and they have a nice meaty look about them. Haven't tried in much snow yet but seem to bite pretty well. Will buy again for my other car.

Bought 2 tires last year. One had bubble, and the other one still has tread but dry rots easy. Might get rid of soon if dry rot worsens.

The tires lasted me a VERY long time, but in the rain, or any weather outside of sunny, it would lose traction and cause the car to drift.

These tires are high quality in my opinion. I felt like I was driving a new car after these tires were put on my accord. I haven't had to drive in snow yet but they do great in wet weather.

Great tire. Very predictable, high grip level for fast lap times. Find the tire noisy at highway speeds but most tires in this category are similar. Will buy again.

This is an excellent handling tire in foul/snowy weather as well as dry roads used on our van & I bought a set in a different size for our Pontiac G6. Combine great tires along with a great sales/service staff at Zurcher's Best One & you have a winning combination.

My tires run so much smoother now. They feel great! They also have a quick response time in both rain and snow and enable me to feel secure when I drive in different weather settings. I would definitely recommend this tire brand to others.

Got about 50K miles on this set consisting of mainly highway driving before they hit the wear indicators. Has one tire in the set that was very noisy. Overall, a good tire for the money but going with Uniroyals on the replacement set.
