The MX's have been nothing but great for me.....cat on carpet in the dry....fair to good when wet and under 1/2 tread depth.

I have tried to get my car to slide and I stopped doing that when it became apparent that the car would likely roll rather than slide in dry conditions.

Those manufacturing inconsisties are the reason for the V710 recall. Not all of them are crap, just some of them.

because:
bit cheaper
better wet traction
less noise
less treadwear
no ugly sidewall

can anyone change my mind for the better? or should i get these?

Go for Falken FK451 instead

Ugly sidewall?

Errrrr ugly sidewall? I have the new Nitto Neogens and the sidewall looks like a race tire. Is that cosidered ugly?

When I'm checking out a tire, I tend to focus on the tread.
