- Acceptable noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) levels
- Suitable for daily commuting and standard touring applications
Cons
- Premature tread wear and poor overall longevity

Worth knowing
- Users operating these tires on small SUVs reported that while handling was sufficient, the tire failed to meet the comfort standards set by OE-fitted tires.
