I had a set in that size on my previous car, a 1993 Prelude VTEC.

About the only good thing I have to say about them is that they are a long-lasting tire with great treadwear. You could easily get 50k-60k mi out of them. They are about as soft as a brick. They don't stick well in the dry or in the wet, but they are OK in the snow.

They suck, best way to put it. I had a set of Ziex 502 on my car and it was horrible, ESPECIALLY in wet weather. Felt like you had no control even though I wasn't even going that fast. I highly recommend you avoid them. Kumho is a better option and only a few bucks more.
