The GE UHP tires performed quite well in triple digit speed on straight-aways and corners. I had the utmost confidence while performing maneuvers.

I know some members have the GE UHP tires on their cars. Can you please provide some feedback on your experience(s) with them so far?? I'm thinking about purchasing them because the price is half of the Michelin PS2's and other brand names. But I'm afraid of the old saying "why put cheap tires on a nice car".

Many months later, and the tires are still great. Here in Florida, with all of the rain, I get great stick with the GEs. Most of the roads are cement, and the tires do good to reduce noise.
One poster complained about quick wear once, but that could be many things related to that particular poster. I believe that the treadwear rating is high, and I am getting expected good wear.
For all of the replica wheel purchasers out there, get the OEMs, and save your money with these tires.
