Tire Rack rated this tire #2 in the All-Season High Performance category. Replaced my run-flats with these after 18,000 miles.....glad I did. Today was the first chance to test them on wet roads and they performed admirably. Expect the same in snow......but I can wait for that! Nice cornering, quiet, smoother ride and thick tread that should last twice as long as the stock tires.

Cost me $490.....including shipping and installation.....at a local discounter who will do free rotations every 5-6,000 miles.

This is a better deal than the $262 the dealer charged to replace the one run-flat that......ran flat.

I just put on a set of BF Goodrich Traction T/A V (215/50R16) on my MINI with a set of 16x7 Koenig 'Holes' (Not in the signature pic). Great looking tyre, excellent traction, very sticky on the corners, excellent in the rain, agressive tread.. The wide rubber looks really good, too.
