My experience so far have been mixed. If they set for a more than a day they flat spot and it takes several miles to warm up and quit shaking. The grip is good but the sidewalls are much weaker than the PS2's i removed. Huge improvement in ride quarlity because of the softer side walls. Can't argue with the price but I am taking them back in to my indy (who installed them) to have them rebalanced. Still shaking the steering wheel. May have lost a weight, but does not look like it. I may actually may have seperated belts. I'll keep you posted.
Simple dynamic balancing doesn't always suffice. You should look into the benefits of road force balancing .
