agreed Led... and the cost is a factor.
I just got these tires last month and I can book it at 70mph even if it is raining hard and going through big puddles. It has some kind of Orange Oil in the compound and man... they stick to the road. Never had tires like these.... YK580's.
BTW I don't recommend anyone to driving 70mph in the rain... unless you use RainX. You won't be able to see shit.
