I'm going to be in Indianapolis for the 92nd running of the Indy 500 this coming weekend though.
To be honest, I haven't had a chance to put more than 20 miles on them and that was just around town. However, I have a coworker that I talked to with two MB AMG's and swears by the Toyo tire now. He said they are wearing better and sound quieter than the Bridgestone Potenza's he used to use...
