They replaced some worn out Michelin Symmetry's. After 500 miles of break-in, they're about matching the mileage, and the symmetry's are already good FE tires. Much quieter, but that may be just because they're new. 51 psi sidewall - nice. $130 for these, compared to $105 for symmetrys. __________________ 11-mile commute: 100 mpg - - - Tank: 90.2 mpg / 1191 miles
