I have those tires and like them quite a bit.  I've
maybe only put on a 1,000 miles on them, but they
handle well, roll reasonably quietly, and havn't
noticed any serious rain problems (but havn't driven
in the wet much at all...).  These are street tires
only, though.  No fun lugs for you syncro guys.

And they are from the fatherland :-)

Honestly, when these wear out, i'll be replacing them
with another set of contis.
