The 225/45/17 size averages about $40-$50 more per tire than the competition, so it just doesn't seem worthy of the plunge. If you can get them for a discount, we'd love to hear your feedback!
Agreed.
@7thgear if you can get the AD08R for a price closer to what the other tires cost, it's worth trying out.
