Tires could have gone an additional 15,000 miles.
They are quiet and very responsive. Excellent traction in Minnesota snow.

From your signature pic, the rears look ok... The front end seems a bit higher than I would find acceptable. The gap between the front and rear look different as well. Could be just the pic...
