Brent-

As Jamo mentioned I used these on my ERA and they still had decent tread after 12,000 miles.

I asked a CHP officer (off the street - not one I knew) what he thought of them and he stated that they only care that the tread depth is legal. I pointed out that it stated "Not for Highway Use" on them and he got a little testy at this point and re-stated that "WE DON'T CARE AS LONG AS THEY ARE TREADED AND LEGAL DEPTH!" so I didn't push it any more.

I asked my insurance agent what he thought and he stated that if the claim was a result of using these tires they would not honor it. In other words, if the tire failed and caused the claim they wouldn't pay.
