03 Aero with 18x7.5" rims. Replaced chopped worn noisy garbage Kumho 712's after maybe 8k miles with the Nero M+S. I experienced the same thing when I first had the tires installed. They were squishy and wandered all over the place. Turn in felt numb and unresponsive. Well I have been running them for about 5k miles now and they have gotten much better with time and mileage for some strange reason. They do not wander although there is still some minor tramlining. Turn in seems to be better and grip has increased as well. Maybe there is some sort of break in period? I have no idea why it changed so much but it has. These tires are also very comfortable and absorb bumps much better than either the Kumho's or the stock Rossos. I like them but there are definately some shortcomings. For the money they are the best choice. Launching in the snow isnt that great but turning and high speed stability are great in the snow...much better than either of the previous tires I mentioned.
