Had my set for nearly a year, great tire, no bubbles or probs whatsoever.
Did a track event on them and they held up great, still sticky after heat cycling and for the price they are great in dry and in the rain, only now after 10k miles can I start to break the car loose really in the rain when I try really hard.
Cheap and good, that is a very rare combo, and I am personally sticking with 'em.

All season tires are a big compromise. Not as good in the snow as a snow tire, not as good in the...
wet and dry as a dedicated summer tire.
As Ferris said, "If you have the means, I highly recommend getting one, it's so choice!"
Get snows and summer. They divide the wear, and you have the best of both worlds. Order your 225.45-17 H or V rated snows in August or Sept from tirerack, though, or you will be out of luck (sold out) by October/November, I have had all but the vrednesteins, and recommend the Michelin Pilot Alpins as the best, IMHO.

doh...that stinks! i hope it didn't hurt your wallet when that happened...
the rain driving was so cool...i was through some heavy rainstorms with them and it felt very safe at higher speeds.
