I put the V-rated B.F. Goodrich Traction T/A's on last November, seem to be a really nice tire, excellent handling, relatively quiet ride (better than the Michelins and yokohamas) maybe not quite as crisp handling as the others, but really close, (may be I'm remembering the Michelins when the tread was worn off some, too) unless you are doing some serious racing, they work fine, not enough difference to worry about, AND they go great in the snow. It did take a few hundred miles to get them broken in good. They also have a pretty high mileage rating.

ya i also have the es100's mine are pretty decent tread wire. but those tires kick but on rain. maybe your alignment is just messed up and eating away at your tires.

the bf t/a's are real good. i canyon race and i use them it lasted me 6 months of driving twistys everyday. so for regular driving should last a long time.

treadwear on the dunlops is 200. i thought theyd wear out really fast when i saw that, but i guess ill reconsider getting those tires when i get my rims.
