I've had the Sumis on for a couple of weeks now. Going from Continental Extremecontacts, there's a noticeable improvement in dry road grip. Steering response is maybe just a bit more crisp. Steering feel is actually improved. I notice alot more road texture through the steering. Feels like I'm on rails with the M030 suspension and dry roads.

I haven't had a chance to see what breakaway feels like. That will come when the mountain roads are a little less sandy. The Contis were very progressive and gave alot of warning.

Flatspotting really isn't any more noticeable than with the Contis. No objectionable road noise.

Ride is firm but acceptable. The tire shop noted that the stiff sidewall made the tires a challenge to mount.

So far, I'm very happy. What a great car.
