I seen them run, looked like a decent all around bash tire. Handled pretty good!

They are a good soft basher tire. I had a set for a little bit, stuck real well to a lot of different surfaces.

Would you say they are better then the response tires on hurricane rims?

No! not as far as grip goes, but the response wouldn't have near the life of the vantage

I really liked the response tire, probably my favorite.

the new CrimeFighter MT tires are dialed almost everywhere. The standard Bowties are still a great tire also. I have seen responce tires wear down too easy, I wouldn't buy any unless I had tons of cash or got a good deal on a set. They do grip really well indoors at leisure though and they are light as hell.

These are good street tires. I had them on my Revo. They stick really well to hard surfaces and they hug corners. My LHS told me the red is a harder compound to keep the wheels from ballooning as much.
