You don't live in the Northeast do you? One pothole and your tires and rims are toast.

DUDE! You need to calm down. o.k. I'm not trying to condemn you for buying 22's. Personally I really don't care what you do. Don't get me wrong about not liking low profile tires, cuz my girlfriend has an integra with low profile 35's on 18" rims and although they look good, they also feel rough to me when I'm driving it. I'm just merely suggesting that 30's are way too thin for everyday street use. So chill out bro!

Ian,
Have you checked out the tirerack.com forum about customer satisfaction? That is where I go when I have questions about the road noise and life of a particular tire.
