I have them, neogens. Great traction in the dry or wet conditions. The treadwear is 270/280, its raining right now so I dont feel like checking. They corner very well.

One word:

NO!

You'll probably end up getting somewhere around 20k out of them if you don't drive like a maniac.

I've put 15k or 16k on my neogens. I have like half toe tread left. There would be a little more if I didnt take corners as fast as I do.
