Yeah, it's worth it to try new rubber. May find something you like better.

i really liked the stick with my m3's they just wore out in the middle, its funny how a cross country trip can do that, i got 6k out of the middle, not much turning, but when i did get to turn at the dragon they had good feel and plenty of stick

Yeah I spun my tire yesterday coming out of a corner, I got home and there was black rubber all over my license plate. I think they've been heat cycled too many times and now they just have no grip at all.

Not bad as a stock OEM tire... Not the greatest, not the worst.
