devin,

i put the 8000's on my wifes probe gt (225/50/16) and i have had very good
luck with them.  they have about 19k on them and i have rotated them once.
they are wearing very evenly and there is a lot of tread left.  i am going
to put them on my iX soon. (225/50/15) and expect good luck.  for
comparison, the probe is driven a lot by me in the summer and i drive fairly
aggressive, high speed corners, high speeds on the freeway, general spirited
driving.  they have performed well and i would recommend them.  good dry/wet
cornering/breaking.  YMMV.

good luck and i hope this helps.

regards,
