I've heard very mixed reviews on them. For just driving around they're ok, but they're hardly high performing.

I hate them! I had a set on my car and they are junk, I do set high demands on tires but I didnt like them at all. I would rather go with a fuzion tire they are a pretty good cheap tire. but dont listen to me I am the guy that bought new tires for my fd before the ones i got with it were 80% b/c I hated the feel. If your only going to pull it out for the weekends why do it with junky tires?

Total junk. My dad had them on his FD (bought them against my advice) and dismounted and sold them after like 2k miles. He said it made driving the FD feel like driving a pinto

I have a set on my Talon and they don't hook for anything. They are decent in the weather and handle ok. Definitely not a performance tire. Sell you mine :P

my local shop here the manager is a friend and he discounts tires they have over stock on, and when there over 18 months in inventory.. just to ditch them..

it was the 712's or the f1's i was going with the cheaper of the 2 first and now i figure ill just spend aq lil extra cash...

rich if you want ill see if he has more in stock he can let go cheap!? ill PM you after i talk with him..

what size's do you need?
