I put these on my fathers grand prix for him as a Christmas gift last year and he loves them, 20K on them and no wear at all. The price was right too!

They do have directional treads, but any half decent tire place has lifetime rotations, are very quiet, and have good holding in dry (still only an all season, not a sport tire).

In all honesty all seasons are definetly between sport tires and winter tires. You'll get enough traction in winter, but it'* nothing to write home about, and you're not getting massive grip in the dry, but they'll always stick more then necessary to get around town.
I agree, they are very good tires.

I have the goodyear triple a'* now. I think that they are a good tire but not quite my BFG TA'*
