They came on the WRX and assumed they were just all-season crap. But what little I found online suggests they might not be that terrible? Made by Goodyear, H speed rated... Anyone have an opinion? The tread seems to be in good shape, maybe I shouldn't be in a hurry to replace after all?

IIRC that's the second from the bottom Walmart house brand tire, they're certainly better than no name Chinese maypops but probably not by much. I wouldn't expect them to blow out or anything in normal driving if they aren't really old.

had a set on a saturn 6 or 7 years ago. Nothing exciting to drive on but they did last awhile. Check the date codes for sure.

There rock hard and spin really easily. Otherwise they seem to atleast hold up decently in day to day driving. i had a set on my accord. no complaints for that.

I had a set on my wifes Pontiac Sunfire. They were not that bad at all and wore extremely well. That was my second set of Douglas Tires. I also had a set on a Bonneville SLE that went over 60,000 miles.

I'll check the date codes later after work. I autocrossed on them once when a rallycross got rained out, wasn't terrible but definitely not RE-71s.
