I have to disagree. Those tires came as OEM on my Acura Integra and my RSX. I found them to be neither grippy in the dry, nor especially good in the wet, nor did they wear well. The handling got dramatically better on my Acuras when I switched tires (to Dunlop D60A2s on the Integra and Kumho 712's on the RSX).

I've got the Pilot Sports on my Boxster, but I think next time I need to change tires I will go with the P-Zero Rossos.
