I had those on the rear of mine in 235/40/17...very good dry traction, wet traction isn't bad...i loved them...I am trying out my new goodyear eagle F1's now though to see which i like better.

I have them on my car. I love them. Gave me great handeling and grip to the road. When i drive in the rain it is almost like driving in dry conditions. Hope this helps you.

Good tire. I'm running them on my car for almost 15K miles now. The tread is lasting really well. (I drive alot.) And they are pretty damn grippy. The only thing I've noticed is that when they are cold, they don't really hold for shit, you gotta ride around for a while to heat em up. But I really like them and for the price, you can't really beat it. I go through tires too much though.

They are awesome. I had them on my Z, and am going to buy them for whatever wheels I put on the Scion.
