I have the same tires on my car right now. Not bad at all, they're still holding up and I smoke them up every day :D

They aren't too big for a 15" rim. ANd from what I have seen they should hold up just fine for you.

I have them on my car right now too. They are ok, they kind if like to follow road grooves though.

This makes two of us! :D Except I got the 712's. Looks like you got yours from tirerack, cause it's exactly how mine arrived. I paid a total of $257.90 shipped to my door and only took 2 business days too! By far cheaper than Discount Tire even though they offered free shipping ($70x4=$280). Can't wait to put them on! :D

I have 711's on my car right now, and I dont paticularly like them. I wanted azenis but my camber problems need to be fixed before I get some 200 tread wear rated tires. The 711's do last a long time though. But I think the tires I have now had a big part in my understeering and hitting a curb, so boooo kumho 711's.
