I have had them for a while. Good when it's dry and okay when it's wet. Mine's not a daily driver and they were cheaper than some others. Sounds like you got a good deal on them if you got them from an insurance company.

I'm running ecstas (285/35r17's) all around and they run good for stockish power, true about the wet though, except this one time on I-40 going east past OKC during a snowstorm, surprisingly good. I've only had them a year, rotated them once, and I need to get some new ones soon, but then again I drive hard...
