More than welcome.
More than welcome.
I'm on my second set of them. I would recommend them to anyone. I'm currently running 235/35-R19 on the front and 255/30-R19 on the rear. Next to no road noise and great performance. The tread life is pretty good, too. Price vs performance? Definitely worth every penny.

Thanks again for all the info.
One more question: Can you check country of origin on your Gmax tires? I think earlier batches were German made, but then they vanished and were made in other countries and I saw a post on some other forum that the quality was not as good... ?? probably not correct, but just curious.
Oh and where did you get them from? Tire Rack?

Mine state Made in U.S.A.
I ordered them through a local garage. Would have used tirerack, but at the time my mechanic wasn't set up with them, and the local place wouldn't install them unless they bought them. Now my mechanic works with tirerack, so when I need another set (or any tires) I'll most likely do that.
Per some people on various tire forums Gmax tires made anywhere other than in Germany have lesser quality - just what I read online, may or may not be true; I do remember very early on TR when Gmax was first available country of origin was always Germany...

Welp, mine are from muricah! and are fantastic. I wouldn't be surprised if people are just touting crap for the sake of touting crap.
I also sincerely hope that's what they're doing, and that they have the same quality regardless of country of origin.
The one thing that bothered me was how they first appeared on TR German made, then vanished for a few weeks, and was again available with other countries of origin with a lowered price
I am still pretty certain that this will be my next tire though.
It seems to offer a lot of the DWS performance if not the same, for a lesser price .,,

Oh quite a while ago- I don't remember exact time, but it was when they first appeared on TR as a new tire.
