Being the stock tire on the STi, and me owning one, I can attest to these tires.
I found them to be ok for normal spirited driving, but on the auto-x course, they were disappointing. I had to go up very high in psi to avoid tire roll-over. Doing this hurt my launch traction and straight-away stability.
They were ok in the rain… minor hydroplaning here and there, but they weren’t scary to drive like some other low-treadware tires.
DO NOT get caught in the snow though! Even a dusting on the ground will leave you stranded– or worse, in a snowbank.
