I have had mine since Jan'08. They are very nice so far. I have put about 8k on them. They seem to be wearing better than the Michelins I replaced.

I liked mine untill around 20K miles....too much road noise. They are starting to cup and feather a bit too.

The Proxes II are supposed to have addressed the road noise.

I didn't even know those were out. The tread pattern looks much better for high mileage noise issues. I may have to try those next time. I still havn't experienced much noise from the S/T's yet as some people have.

I wonder why some do and some don't? I have gotten good miledge from them, "rotated" them and balanced when needed.

Yet I can feel the road terribly bad, and braking is emberrasing without the music cranked.

I have about 15k on them now and have never rotated them once. Noise is not an issue so far. Not saying it wont be, but so far so good and no cupping issues.

I have about 15k on mine and they are starting to cup and make noise. Its only slight but it seems to have started when the temp got hot. In the 90's.
They ride ok but I think I will go bacl to Michelins.
