I had them on my S2K, went though some AutoX's with them and daily driving. Great all aroud tire. Good grip, decent sidewall. Good value too.

My brother had these on his Boxster and loved them for the price. I had some of the older model htr zs on my 928 and hated them, because the sidewall was way too soft, and the car never felt planted.

Awesome tires once they get a few miles on them. Quiet with a lot of grip!
Like them so much better than the stock ones.

Oh yeah .................cheap!!
