Bought them at a local independent shop here in the DFW area who happens to sell them. Price matched lowest I found online. Sorry haven't had enough rain on my days home to really give them a whirl. Like them just fine. For some reason I'm not noticing as much "tracking" with them as the Diamaris. What I mean is when the tires feel like they are stuck in a rut and you have to force them to turn (like you're driving the cars at Disneyworld for a second).
I'm not sure if it was the traction control on the X or the tires, but I was impressed that I remained straight during an agressive (read stupid) holeshot in the wet on my worn Diamaris. Although I only drove the last 6k miles on those Diamaris, I really had no ill feelings for them except in the snow.
