i have em. cant complain at all. I live in the NE. They handle very well in the wet and the dry conditions. Maybe a bit pricey, but they're a great set of tires

I am. Yes dry weather they are good, but rain sucks. They can slip easly when wet.

Potenza RE730, Toyo FZ4, Falken 502...that is the order I ranked them during a three-tire comparo at Streets of Willos. FZ4, Nitto NT450 and Falken 502 are VERY VERY close in performance on the street and the track. FZ4s are a tad bit better under wet braking...
