Me - excessive tramlining, esp. under braking, and very harsh ride; heavy.

Default a little noisey, but that's expected with most max performance tires. no tramlining.....yet.
But, yet again, typical of a wide/stiff tire.

Inferior to BF Goodrich KDW2's in every way.

Inferior is relative and the BFG's cost MUCH more.

Default Real life treadwwear. 10% better handling than Pilots; 30% worse treadwear.
I LOVE the handling, but at 3K miles, my tires look pretty sad. Yes, my alignment is good, I just have a nice, twisty drive to/from work everyday. Unfortunately, I've had to cool it. My wife is an accomplished kickboxer, and needing to buy another set of tires this year is liable to set her off just a bit. ;-)

Will try Toyo T1-S next...on 18" silver SLs!
