Not really comparing, just off the top of my head was saying they were decent. They have exceptional wet traction in my opinion. As for tires I've used for a good length of time to compare? Goodyear eagles, Bridgestone potenzas, BF Goodrich gforce (one of my favourites), Michelin pilots...etc.... I've tried a few. LOL. Currently trying my first set of yokahama's. They're not bad so far. Not really a performance tire though. They were stockers on my Lancer.
