Seems like a good deal

Hope these will be same (or not worse) than Kumho SPT (lasted almost 20K!)

When TireRack offers specials like this, you should probably scoop it up fast. The g-Force Sport isn't a world beater tire, but it's a competent summer performance tire for someone who isn't going to try to get every ounce of performance out of the car.

Price is great, but some of the reviews about wet weather traction and control on rainy roads is concerning.

after reading the reviews and considering the price, I went for it. If I can get 10k out of these tires before they become unbearable I'll be happy. $300 for new rubber put a smile on my face, and kept my other romance off my wife's radar... in mastercard terms, priceless!

aye, and I bought the nifty transport / storage cases for them when I take them down to my local tire store later this week to swap out the stock tires. Figure I'll have them pop on my 17" wheels and winter tires at the same time as I have no clue what to do with the funky mounting rings that came with my winter wheels.
In all, It came out to like $384

Ordered them.
Thanks.
Just mounted my snow tires and winter wheels, and I don't have much tread left on my OEM Dunlops, so these will be put on in the spring.
$85 per tire with shipping.

Seriously, I went thru 3 or 4 sets in last 4 yeas and every time new set was better than old one.
Even when I replaced totally worn out RT-615 with ZIEX 512 (all season rubber btw

To truly compare something you have to do side-by-side tests in a controled eviroment with proper measurement etc etc , just like tirerack or many magazines do.
Tirerack has two in-house tests with these tires - make sure you check them out.
While this is not a killer tire it is definitely not a crap tires either.
