one of the best tires on tirerack: General Exclaim UHP

I was originally going to go with Eagle F1's until I heard that the category of "Max performance summer tires" in tire rack wore out faster than most other category tires... So I checked the next category down which was "ultra high performance summer tires"...
General Exclaim UHP are number 1 in the category. And they are really cheap ($121 for 19's). I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these tires, and even better, if anyone can compare this tire with the Eagle F1's.

Here is the link for the tire ratings:

From what I've heard, I'd go with the Kumho SPT's over the General UHP's. Also, if treadwear and price are priorities, I'd give some serious consideration to the Pirelli PZero Nero M+S. It's an Ultra High Performance All Season tire, and is one of their best sellers.

I know this is an old thread, but I am here to warn everyone about General UHP tires. My friends got them and mounted them on his Maya STM rims. Last night the rear left tire blew out on his S4. The tire was complete shredded and bent his rim. BEWARE OF GENERAL UHP.
