I remember how much grip they had when I used them on my G35. The outer half of the wheel looks like a semi slick practically

How are the springs? Do they create a BMW like ride (soft over bumps but grippy in curves) or is it like an Audi ride (firm and jarring on bumpy or rough surface roads)

also does the factory AVS still adjust the damping between firm and normal?

The sidewall of the tire is on the softer side but the grip is insane and the ride is quiet and comfortable. We have a set on my wifes TL. Great tire
