My experience (confirmed with this tire purchase) is, when you spend a little extra for quality, it usually works out well.
I agree. The summo's are cheap and cheerful and they wear out real fast. Normally these show up on a car just before a sale so you can state hey the tires are new. If you looking for a real good cheap tire try the faulkins but sadly they only make the fronts for our car but they have phenomenal tire wear. I have heard the pilot sports are good too however I haven't tried those. I did not like the BFGs either. I run F1 GS D3s on both my rides. I am hesitant to run anything else besides those or the Pilot Sports in the future. GC
