Had them on my classic and now on my 03 STi. They are excellent in the dry and very good in the wet. They can be fun in damp greasy conditions but are very predictable. Wouldnt change them for anything else

Aah ideal, i love assymetric tyre designs they rarely seem to be weak in any one department like the pzero's i had a while back

Good to know they don't snap when they lose traction, that was why i ditched the toyo's, in greasy conditions once they broke you were in trouble, but ive spent an age deciding over what tyre would be best hence my decision

Your opinion adds to that assumption so thanks

I`ve used `em on my ol` classic too for a summer, lovely and grippy in the dry.
Cant fault them

I would echo those thoughts above. Good in snow I found but don't like heavy track-type use and will wear very quickly in those conditions.
