Summary:
Great Tire! This tire was more than I expected from day one. They grip very well holding the road in great in dry and wet. Not good in winter as expected. Cornering is a breeze. They feel is nothing but grip. You trully knowthat these things are not going to let your car go. They hold to well. I always try and avoid pot holes but you can't miss them all. Even large ones this tire seems to hold up well giving a soft bump and not a cluck or ding on the rim like other tires I've used.

Strengths:
Great grip! Even while cornering at 145mph while flipping the car down a hill these babies really grab the trees and rocks and send you on your way.

Weaknesses:
They don't look that good after driving through the mud.

Summary:
I find the Scorcher series tires to preform well above what I expected. As with any "profile tire" you have to be careful of road problems. I find them to displace water extremely well in "high speed" trips. The wear is less than what I expected with this type of tread. Over all I'm extremely pleased with my purchase.

Strengths:
As advertized! A great road tire! The side walls are excellent under stress. Braking and turning are perfect for all road situations. The tire holds ever thing from the road to air!

Weaknesses:
I haven't found any yet.

Summary:
Overal these tires are by far the best tires for anybody. Not only do they look awesome and haves colors in them, but they also have great performance. Whith these puppies on, you can corner however fast your car cna probably go. They are also a nice tire to have for any performance vehicle. They work great in the rain and have also improved the traction drastically on my car.

Strengths:
Great traction and lots of looks.

Weaknesses:
The blue rubber gets too dirty so it is not seen all the time.

Summary:
What can I say but they are amazing.......the only colored tires out there.....excellent traction......and you get so many people complimenting you on your tires. If you want tires and have the money these are the tires for you.

Strengths:
Great looks and feel, if you like attention then these are for you. Great attraction even in the rain (as long as you are not going that fast). Deep thread.....more durable than Yokohama tires which don't seem to last long. And heck the tread is colored can't go wrong with that. (mine are yellow)

Weaknesses:
It is a bit expensive....but what do you expect if you're buying performance tires.
