: I just got the 730s and I'd have to agree with the soft sidewall issue. I don't drive my car that hard (at least I think I don't) and do not attend track events. However in comparison with my previous SP8000's I can certainly feel that some of the "bite" is gone with the 730's. They are still new so hopefully things change, but so far I am not impressed.

: On the Bridgestone website they have a 30-day money back guarantee, anyone ever try this?

: Cliff

What kind of car do you drive? It seems like the 730s are the wrong tires for a bigger/heavier car but might be great for smaller cars.

Give the tires more time, I have almost 2k miles on them and they are getting better, but the front still feels "loose", just not as bad. I'll have the chance to autox in 2 weeks, hopefully they won't let me down this time.

30 days is not long enough, I already passed that, these tires need more time to break-in.
