I have had these on my car for about four weeks now. At first I was really disappointed with the amount of cornering grip but after a few weeks they have really improved and I am now happy with them. I know you have to wear off the mold release but I feel it takes more than that for these tires to really come around.

I've seen them on ebay and some other unknown sites for $165-$185 + $10-$15 s&h but my past few big buys from eBay have been questionable and really don't want to get jacked on tires!
Previously I was looking at getting Goodyear GS-D3 in the same size but they've been going up in price and their a bit to much pricey right now; currently they run about $1090 + s&h & RH.

Because in the first post, the OP got about the same sizes (bigger in the front) for only $695.
Btw, I believe this is their info:
Name: Afs Wheels
Street: 7301 Deering Ave
Canoga Park, Ca 91303
Phone: (818) 340-6181
If anyone wants these tires in SD area, I drive up to 818 every couple months, so I can definitely pick these up.

I ordered 2 rear sessanta tires from afs this week, very impressive prices. I recommend you give them a shot. I go through rear tires pretty quickly due to camber so I hope that these prices stay low for some time.

New brand of tires.
How 'bout 17s?! They should be even better-priced! I'll try to contact them, I just wonder if they ship to Puerto Rico, U.S.A.! Also, I'd rather get them non-unidirectional, so the can be rotated "normally". Conventional Dunlops
hev turned out to be GREAT on my wife's P'finder ($126.00, ea., installed at Ft. Buchanan, Army Post); the jarring ride's totally gone!!! We'll see.--CBPO from the AST zone.

These tires can be rotated. The rain groove that runs all around the circumference just needs to be on the inside of the wheel.

Great review on the tires. Vredestein is a company that has been around for quite a long time and has a very good reputation in Europe. For the people in the USA who have known of Vredestein, they have been famous for there excellent snow tires and motorcycle tires.
The High-Performance tires are a "relatively" new entry for Vredestein in the American market.
The Vredestein tires are excellent tires. We have become one of the countries largest Vredestein distributors in just a years time.
Great tires. Great review. Great to see people happy with the tires.
