Anyone use Dayton Daytona SR tires?

I'm not ready to buy, but I was wondering if anyone has used Dayton Daytona SR tires? I'm looking for a good, all-season 205/55/15. I don't need a performance tire/high speed rating for my use. The tread design looks good, and a local price is pretty good. The Firestone Indy 500s are rated well, but they are $30 more per tire. For only a few dollars more than the Indy 500s, I can get the Potenza G009s. Thanks in advance. I'm basically going for the size, and all-season traction.

I liked the falken ziex 512's. Maybe someone can chime in that has used the tire you speak of.

I have the tires you speak of. Actually second set I've had on my ACR. They must have a very hard tread compound because they have lasted well. I would say that despite the size increase from stock ACR tires they don't grip as well. this is probably due to the 2gn acrs coming with a pretty sticky tire from the factory. Other than that, nothing bad to say about the daytonas. Last good, look good.

Thanks for your replies. You have been very helpful. I'd prefer to buy locally -- rather than have them shipped and have them mounted.
