The P6's come standard on the STs. They're ok, not very grippy, especially in the rain. But ok.

Maybe they're the ST rims? I wasn't quite sure.

5 spokers, with a line dividing each spoke (lightly) lengthwise?

Daniel... we had an assload of rain here the day I got them. I remembered reading your post about winter performance, and I bent the car into a sharp lefthander purposely at 50 KM/H. I would never have attempted that stunt on the 14s, and the Firehawks understeer on that same maneuver.... it tracked like a champ without one bit of slip.

I have no intention of running them in the winter :) That's what the 14s and Integrities are for.

The Pirellis are also surprisingly quiet at highway speeds. We came back from one end of North Bay yesterday afternoon at 120+ at times, and they're like half the road noise of the Firehawks.

I might not be AutoX'in, but so far I'm impressed.
