good or bad?
i'm looking for 40 series tires...205/40/16

is it quiet or not?

pls let me know..thx!
I had 205/45/16s on mine and god did they suck..

They were quiet enough, but honestly they only have traction on DRY pavement, NOTHING ELSE.

I remember, with a little bit of rain, I'd be spinning without much effort in a stock G2 integra.

I would never buy them again.

FZ4's suck they were loud and lasted no time at all. Definately not worth the money. Goodyear F1'a can be found for a decent price our shop has them for 165.00 for a 205/40/17.

i have had the FZ4's on for four summers, and got great mileage out of them. They work well on the dry pavement, great upgrade from the stock ride with a set of rims. In the rain they were decent for two years then went south...not that you should be puching it hard in the rain anyway....These tires are REALLY REALLY LOUD! they don't start that loud, but they only get louder as they wear more. I think overall the bang for teh buck is pretty good, but if noise is a problem for you (it is for me) maybe go with a kuhmo 711 or 712, decent tire for decent price, and quiet ride
If you need anything else let me know, i will answer any questions
