I first saw those tires on the Renesis FB... they look pretty sticky!

They're just so damn expensive, and there isn't any options for guys running anything under a 16" rim. At least from what I've seen, I could be wrong. I think the one and only 16" size they have, 175/55-16, the cheapest, starts at around 280?

Is that for the A048 tire or AD07? I can't see the link at work.

Looks more like a marketing vid than an impartial review.

The AD08 seems like it will rock. I just read a tire test in the latest BMW CCA magazine comparing it to the 07. Too bad they are so pricey.

They compete mainly with the Bridgestone potenza RE-11s and the Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star specs, and they are priced to compete (even though pricier). So it's not too bad.
