They are impossible to beat for the price.
They are also lightyears ahead of the SZ50 in the wet[which I thought was impossible].
In 95% of driving you will never know they aren't $$$ tires,if pushed to the absolute limits of your car you will feel more sidewall flex,again only in EXTREME cases!!!

Just to add what everyone else has said, I have had these on my car now for about 10000 miles and they have been wonderful. Very responsive in wet and dry conditions. To be honest, when I bought these at the end of last year, I was just looking for a cheap set to ride out the rest of the year on until spring. I was very pleasently suprised. Can't beat the performance for the price.

All I have to say is I bought a set...you get what you pay for. I will never buy another set. Car doesn't stick to the road like it should. Even the *** end of the car in sharp turns slides out. I sold mine on ebay and stuck with the Eagle F1's.
I hope you bought the Eagle F1 GS-D3, cause the regular F1's suck ***.

Not sure why, I assume its harder rubber than what I'm used to. Going into corners fast and back end of the car will slide rather then sit. Also the front end sliding when braking into a turn. This isn't driving extremly fast either. Within the first 1000 miles on the tires I had 2 blowouts and 1 crack in the sidewall. Luckly I had road hazard. But from the looks of it with everyones else's experience I could have just had bad luck.
