Anyone saying they have them in a 315 is thinking of a different model, so just disregard those comments.

I would easily say they are the best handling/gripping "cheap" tires around.

You are correct, just went in the garage and the ones that suck *** are the HTRZ, the HTRZ II and HTRZ III look like a much better quality tire

I had a set on my car, I was drivin down the Highway about 55, Punched it and slid sideways. NO TRACTION. I wasn't impressed and wouldn't waste your money. Get some Hoosier QTP's

I'm running the HTR summer tires on mine. Got them from Discount Tire at a great price. The car is not a DD so they i should be able to get some years out of them.
