they are good tires, if you do not drive super aggressively or race your car on a road course then you will be happy with them. they do great in the rain and are really quiet. i got 10,000 miles out of my rears.

if you are just an every day driver on the road then i would get something with a higher treadwear rating it will be cheaper in the long run.

if you do both track (roadcourse) and street driving and you live where there are lots of curves then i would get the bridgestone re050a pole position tires. their grip is significantly higher than the ultrac tires.
