have been testing them since Thursday,here is my appreciation of them !!!
DRY = The sidewall is a softer than the SZ50 so it flexes more in very spirited driving at 32PSI,I tried them at 40PSI and the are pretty near what the SZ50 was. I will try various other inflations over the next week and keep you posted. I figure it will end up like 35-37 PSI range. Did 150 miles this morning on the way to the track at 40 and it was a little too firm for my taste,on the way back tried 40 front/32 rear it was better but not ideal.
WET= Forget the SZ50,these things are superior in every way,traction from a dead stop,from a roll,cornering,lane change,standing water,slalom on wet even.These things are FANTASTIC.
Drag racing= I am geared 4.11 so anything i tried[rpm] ended up in smoke or wheel hop[30lbs],maybe someone with saner[3.42/3.23]gearing can test them and report.
Treadwear= I cannot believe these things will last as long as the SZ50 or the SZ50EP,they are WAY too sticky in my opinion,unless they came out with a newer compound.
These things are GREAT,and if you figure in the price they are INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!!
