Anybody have these tires or know someone with them? Are they any good at all??
I'm lookin at a size 225/50-15.. 89 bux each at discount tire...
I was going to get the s03 poles but the total for everything(tax, shipping).. was just shy of 600! These will only set me back about 430(incuding balancing, etc.).

I have them. They're ok tires for the pice. They perform well in dry and moderate in wet roads. They're noisy though.

Hmmm... have you had Kumho Ecsta Supra 712's before?
I'm debating between the two... both about the same price, kumho a little cheaper... but I don't like the kumho's much and would prefer to try another tire...

man i've had tons of friends that have ran that tire and hated it! a few sts guys out here tried to run them a while ago and hated them with a passion, the tre was noisy and didn't stick well in the dry at all everyone single one of them since then has moved to the 712 besides one who doens't push his car in corners but drags it and if just waiting for his next pay raise so he can get a different set of tires. For a good value tire at that price look into the dunlop SP sport 8000.

Just curious why are you going with that size? you have a better variety and better pricing in tires if you go with 205/55-15 and it's not going to be a huge difference but your speed will be closer and if i'm correct will fit better on the stock wheels. At tire rack the s03 is 108 a tire in 205/55 or your can get the potenza re730's for 98 a tire.
