I honestly think the RE 760s are then best performance tire you can buy under 200 bucks. My only grippe (and this is true for nearly all UHP summer tires) is that they turn into hockey pucks in the fall and spring when the temp drops below 5-10 deg. Really had to be careful on cold wet mornings in sept/oct before the winters went on.

Hey guys, so technically the S04 tires are considered all season? Cause on Tirerack they list them as Max Summer tires. Are we talking about the same S04 I am? The Pole Position ones?

Also from what I'm understanding the RE760 grip better than the S04?

Thanks for the comments so far and good to know that they won't be much louder than stock
