They're a good tire. I've got the 960's on my impala and they handle/ride very well with zero road noise. I put the 760's on my girls Malibu SS and the few times I've driven her car they are every bit as smooth and quiet as my 960's.

Get them. They're great tires, especially for the price. They last a while also. I have a few customers with 20k+ miles on theirs and still look good. But I don't think they'd last that long on the front of a GXP that gets driven hard!
