I found one place a little cheaper than tirerack but always have liked tireracks service and quick shipping so went with them. Was like $15-20 cheaper somewhere else.

That sounds about right. I know they used to have specials on them with like $50 back but not anymore unfortunately.
Loving mine! Finally broken in and handle awesome even in the colder weather we are still having in NY.

just bought some to replace my starspecs and got some for the my girl friend's dad who drives like the transporter in his e500. lol he wears his tires with 300 treadwear out faster than i do with my 200 tw starspec and i have been autox and mountain driving. anywho, i hope these are good as people say they are. i need some tires that can last for my dd but hold the grip in the corners of autox.

These are some great tires, I have had them for about 2 months now. Went on a spirited group drive this past weekend and they held up great. I felt like they were very predictable and even with some colder weather in the morning they held up well granted I was also driving easier when I knew they were still cold. My one gripe would be that they are too quiet, and I don't mean while driving I actually mean when your approaching their limits. I went all day without getting a peep out of them and really wanted to see what kind of warning you got when you pushed them beyond their limits. Turns out there really isn't much audio warning when your getting near the limits. So just be careful when driving on these if you don't have experience in high performance driving since it would be very easy to go beyond the limits before you know it. But on the same note even once you exceed the limits they seemed to get their grip back very quickly once you correct the problem (speed, throttle, steering angle, brakes). Overall, highly recommend these tires!

Did you buy them off TireRack? I really wanted to wait to find someone offering a discount again.. but this weekend the s2k comes out of the garage. She needs shoes and these are them.

No, I didn't. Tires.com is offering a promotion ($50 rebate when you use their card). I needed them badly so I didn't ask if tirerack offers something like that. Look into it, they might match it?
