its a damn good $80/each tire. and thats about it.

you can't talk smack about them in the snow because they arent designed for snow AT ALL.

tire rack has em for 57 a pop

yeah, i know they are summer high performance (at least according to tire rack) i dont care if they are bad in the snow, they are safer than my old bald tires - especially since one of them had a blister on the sidewall - a time bomb just waiting to go off, last thing i needed was for that to blow out when im ridin 70+ on the thruway or 65+ on my way to work or school.

i went from stock michelins to kumho 711's to Potenza S-o3's back to kumho 711 (temporarily)...i already ordered the es100s for the next set of wheels that i'm just waiting for to come through. S-03's own every tire out there. they own people's wallets too though. its funny how u see guys rocking super crazy/expensive suspension parts (cough TEIN/JIC/Zeal/etc) but rocking not so hot tires.
