ive been reading some reviews about them and they seem to be pretty good tires. would anyone here recommend them? or is there something better within the same price range? (105 each for 225/45 17)

sry, im a little behind here. yes, they are great tires. all-season capability isnt as good as the best, winter-wise, but still good. a little stiffer than some as well, but great wet traction and great cornering stability. i like em

I had these on my 02 civic SI and hated them. They were very noisy and the side walls were very flimsy. Now keep in mind those were 195 60' 15's i believe so it maybe a bit different on the stock set up.

really? if anything, i thought they were a little stiff, but saolid in the sidewalls. eh, just goes to show ya how different things can be. we usually get a pretty positive response from them.
