These tires have decent grip but do not fair well in wet conditions. I have these mounted on a daily FWD driver and only do "spirited" driving on the onramps and occasional stop light. When I switched to the winter tires after driving these for 1 season, I noticed that the front tires were nearly half worn!! The back tires wear was much less. Enough to rotate them for this season but that makes them a 2 season tire at best! The grip and handling of this tire doesn't offset the cost and excessive wear. There is virtually no distinguishable difference to a high performance summer tire so I'll be going back to a higher wear tire for next season. Also these tires do NOT handle well in a hydroplaning situation. Save your money and get the Pro contact for less. It has virtually the same handling but much better wet performance as well as much better wear.
