Anyone have experience with the Ecsta 711 (not the 712)? I found a set of take-offs 205/55/16 VR for what seems like a good price. Also, are they all-season or summer tires?

Thanks in advance,

Ed

I've got 711's ,same size but ZR rated.
I think they're pretty good for the price
I'm not sure how much they are, but it won't do you any good, I'm in England!!

I have the 711 225/50/16's and I like them alot. The tread is great and they heat up fast. They must stick pretty good considering they stuck hard enough to break my diff. You'll like them, just don't expect 20K miles out of them I don't think. But at the price...who cares?

Thanks for the responses guys. From the specs I've read these should be summer-only tires right? The set I'm looking at has 9/32 of the tread left (about 82% of original) and the want $240 Canadian installed (around $150US). Any guesses on how long they'd last and if this is a reasonable price? I'll be plus sizing from the stock sized 15".
