To me they look like a better tire. Tires are something we all have to replace eventually. If they proved to be an advantage I'm sure some guys would buy them, just as I am sure some guys would still swear by the old tires. It's just another option.

I didn't intend on getting flamed by my post. I thought that I was posting it on a DISCUSSION forum....
