Pros: Not too noisy, decent dry traction
Cons: Scary in the wet

Stock on the car (09 2.5). Not too bad in the dry, howl when pushed in corners. In the wet, just plain scary. They hydro all the time, and I have even gotten a little squirrely in the wet with my kids in the backseat. Wife yelled at me, but it was the tires. I am looking forward to replacing these. And, they are expen$ive.

Pros: dry traction, initial lack of road noise
Cons: treadwear rating, wet traction, replacement cost

Weren't too bad for the first 10K miles or so but after that they seemed to wear quickly and wet traction diminished greatly. Replaced at 25K miles when wet traction and road noise became unbearable.

Still had passable tread on them but hydroplaned in any standing water. Dry traction was good and predictable. The first winter I used these tires I didn't have many traction issues but the second winter (with about 18K miles on them) was scary.

Replacement cost at TireRack is over $150 a tire. At (and below) that price there seem to be MANY better choices.
