I don't like them personally. I think 711's are a better bargain...if you want a performance tyre with the same tread pattern as 712 look at Yokohama AVS ES100

The problem is that they squeal on just about any turn I make.

Too often, they'd squeal and I'd think to myself "I didnt take that turn very fast, wtf?"
