bought these tires on recommendation from a local tire installer. What a mistake, they took a lot of weights, an the tires won't balance out. Okay in town, on the highway...forget it. Should have went with the Nexens

Tires blown up on freeway
Less than a year after installation, these tires barely passed state inspection.
These tires are incredibly bad. Two are out of round and completely unbalanced that the tire shop won't put any more weights on the wheels to balance them.
I ordered these tires for my Geo Metro. they look to have really good deep treads, was the highest profile for that size tire, i searched many other tires and none were close to the tread life ( 80,000 miles estimated ) my car is really light, so if you take off too fast, they tend to bark. they seem to be really good in heavy rain. haven't been thru any deep water on the roadway yet to test hydroplaning. but overall i like these tires, they are just a bit thinner than my old ones. over all, i'd but more when the time comes.. unless my car dies before then. it already has 245,000 miles on it. pretty good for a 93 Geo Metro.
After calling local dealers for three hours we found Simple tires on line and ordered our GT Radial Maxtour. They arrived and are fantastic. Low road noise, great traction and they look great on our Geo Metro. Thankyou For your great service and wonderful prices.
good general purpose tires
Tires are great so far. Nicely balanced with little weight required.
haven't had them for that long but they're great in all weather conditions
Very quiet, have not yet driven in rain but out our 700 foot long driveway uphill to main road in 9 inches of fresh powder without slippage. Tracks true on dry pavement and on slush. Seems a great value.
