I've got a buddy at school that has a set of said tires and would like to unload them. Has anyone had experience with these tires??

Yuppers. They are an excellent tire. What size are they?

I had these tires on my SC on the wheels I sold to Cameron and was running 205/45-16f (a little too tall), 225/40-16r. They did their job & I liked them but I wasn't jumping up and down about them, probably because there are a lot better tires out there. But for something second hand and available, I'd grab 'em!

In my experience, they are not so good on wet..

I got my new tires, the Toyo T1S, dry is ok, but not good to impress me..
However, they grip really well on wet...somehow I feel they perform wet better than dry :?

Well they're in my price range and the tires I have now are pretty borderline so I think I'll give 'em a try. I also have some extra rims to throw them onto, so If I have the urge to go drifting I can use the old ones on the back.
