How much did you pay for yours? I got my star specs for 139 each install included.
255 x 40 x 17

 

Which size did you end up going with, 235/45 or 255/40?

 

mine arrived the other day, getting them installed this week sometime.
can't wait to try them out @ shenandoah in Oct!

 

These tires feel great for daily driving. I had them for 150 miles. I took a sharp turn very hard the other night. I'll be honest didn't feel as good as the stock advans... YET but for the price and performance from what I hear, these tires are kick ***! Can't wait to really try em out.

 

^ Did you stick with the stock size?

 

Yep but like I said only 150 miles. Plus it was night time and I don't think my tires were warm. I really loved the stock advans (even in the rain!) just not the price. My first reaction was these tires feel bigger, car felt slower and heavier than stock while behind the wheel. After a 100 miles or so it felt better. I'm just going to shut up for now until I hit 400-500 miles and after I put in some "track" time.

 

I've run a lot of tires of high end street and race tires on my Evo -- Advans, RA1s, V700s, V710s, RE01Rs and PS2s -- and none of them "feel" as good as the Advans, but steering wheel/turn-in response isn't as important to turning good times as ultimate grip.

 

I have had these tires since June when they FIRST hit the TireRack shelves. I have 6 rounds on Nurburgring, 4 laps at Hockenheim, and in 2 weeks I am going to Bitburg to do a few laps and 400m sprints (1/4 mile). these are the BEST damn tires i have ever used on any car! they are great DD tires also.

They really dont have road noise unless you exceed 100mph.

I am running 145/40/17 if it really matters.

I almost forgot, as good I think these tires are, the WET grip of these tires is lacking. (but boy are they fun!)
