Finally got mine on the car, 225/255.
Mind you that I'm replacing a set of thrashed replacement RFT Bridgstones.
Very nice ride. Quiet, no howl on any road surface I found at any speed.
Sidewall is soft vs RFT. Does not feel like a typical low profile tire I'm accustomed to. I wouldn't call it a high performance tire per se. It actually feels kinda lazy.
For a DD that does some brisk straighline, you'll love the tire.
Anyone who enjoys turning, I don't think you'll be happy. It holds a line very well. But it's not a fast responding tire.
Only driven about a hundred miles on them so far. And so far I'm happy enough. The normal law abiding ride is so nice that I can deal with everything else.

Raining cats & dogs. Tires do just fine in very hard rain and standing water at civil highway speeds.

Having more time on the tires now I can say that once they break-in they become a very good tire and grip increases (though this could just be driver confidence). And what I thought was a soft tire seems to be more soft suspension. The tire shows no signs of 'rolling' or blistering/feathering edges.
All in all, I'm very pleased for the money.
