Tires seem soft. They go over the highway dots and smaller bumps like driveway gutters softer and less crashy. Don’t know 100% if this is exactly how the MPS4S felt brand new as well. Haven’t really ran them in yet as it’s only been a few days. Hoping they last a long while like the MPS4S. Got about 25k miles out of that set. They wore down way better and lasted much longer than the factory Alenzas. Fronts were wearing on outer edge and rears still had 3mm.
Also did an alignment. And for anyone asking about yearly or every other year alignments, just because you don’t hit anything or your car doesn’t ‘pull’ doesn’t mean your alignment angles aren’t out and you can’t benefit from an alignment.
Thank you for sharing your experience!

I'm still worried about the rears. Many users here run 295s, but I keep reading warnings everywhere because the wheels are 9.5".

Since these are the 2nd set of 295s tires, could you please share any thoughts about them? Any downside? Especially when pushing hard or under heavy load.

TIA
