Those tires sucked on my g8. However my used CPO SHO came with Zenna Argus All season radials, which were really good for cheap tires....nice tread too. Was like 75 ea from walmart.com and my fav tire place SIMPLE TIRE .COM
Great cheap summer tires are General made by Continental tires in Germany,

245-45-20 GENERAL GMAX RS TIRES 360 AA A
Had sale at Simple tire 130 ea ....they always have free shipping

While  not a huge savings, i bumped my Continental  Dws 02 up a size to P255/45r20 to fill the wheel well and the larger tire was about $30/tire cheaper with no negative  effects.

No rub on hard turn acceleration or loss of TC in slippery turns?
Still like them? Most tires I check a bit cheaper in the size....

Not even close to rubbing and the tire diameter is ever so slightly  larger, 1/4"+/- more sidewall and about 1/2" wider. Very negligible difference.
P245/45r20=28.68" diameter
P255/45r20=29.04" diameter
Less than 1mph off on the speedometer at 60mph.

Currently running a set of these on my EB Flex, loving them so far, especially for the price!
