are the Goodyears they put on the sport better then the Turanza's?

my EL42's are probably 100x's worst then yours. Any wet spot on the ground will activate the VDC!!! They screech when you turn on corners.

Anyone want some Turanzas with 3900 miles on them?

You have to remember the purpose of the tires and the target audience. A lot of people that buy this car don't buy it for it's performance, they're buying an entry-level luxury sedan. They would have bought an I35, but this is what Infiniti has now, and it looks nicer, anyway. The Turanza is a touring tire. It provides a quieter, more comfortable ride than the Goodyears on the highway. It's not a high-performance tire. As far as performance goes, the only thing good about it is that it's very forgiving and progressive at the limit.. squeels like a pig and breaks free slowly, albeit way early.
I chewed up my EL42's in 12k miles. Then a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3's in another 12k miles -- amazing performance tire, great wet grip.

Wait, I take that back. There's more traction in the act of sucking donkey **** than the turanza's could ever provide.
