I just purchased a set of Goodyear TripleTred Tires, replacing my Blizzak w-15's. My tire size is 185/70R14. All I can say is that these tires are amazing!

First of all I am so impressed with the quietness of the tires. Second is the superb cornering..these tires stick to the ground! I do not have ABS but I feel comfortable making quick stops on these. Third is it's wet weather performance...I drove 1000 miles though hills, tight corners and heavy rain and I felt like it will never slip. I had my cruise control set @ 80mph and I didn't have to slow down on curves with at least an inch of water cause it felt like i was driving on very sticky road!

Best tires I've ever purchased! I can't wait to see how great it performs in the winter (of course nothing will beat real winter tires)

Ive been planning on getting the t/a's when my current khumo's wear out but Ive seen recently that the t/a's arent being sold on tirerack anymore, not that I would buy from them anyway but I assume if tirerack isnt selling them anymore then the tire must be cancelled for further production to where one couldnt buy them anywhere. if so I'll have to consider the turanza LS-T or michelin hydroedge.
