I was looking for reliable tires when found these ones. Great tire mileage warranty, 75,000 miles was guaranteed, now I have over 8,000 miles and the tires look like new. We live in the area with a lot of rains and so that I was looking for a tire great in the rain. I really like they stop in the wet. Besides, the tires provide comfortable and extremely quiet ride. I feel safe riding on them.
