Anyone have any experiance with these tires? They don't get good reviews from the Mazda guys but I guess they are not really an all season comfort tire either. These were standard issue sport tires on the Mazda Speed 3. I plan on using them for front summer tires and I am currently running the same size tires on 996 TT's. I already bought them at $100 for both and they only have about 15 miles on them. The guy said he drove them home from the dealer in the snow and that was enough for him. The retail price is $257 from tire rack so I figured I could'nt go to wrong. I hope they work, it was kind of a decide/pass at that moment deal.

I guess the thing I am worried about is that new cars might have a matched tire only for that rim set up. I have never heard of that but I would not put it past them.

Never used them but at $100.00 if you don't like them after a bit of time, you've lost nothing.

That's kind of what I figured. Now if I can just find a deal on some good 295's for the rear.
