Anyone running Goodyear Silent Armor 265/60 18s

I would love to hear feedback on anyone running the silent armors on their disco 3.
How is wear rate
How is noise compared to the HP's
How is ride
How is handling
 Do not take life too seriously no one gets out alive anyway!

I can't help, but for your interest I put the new Cooper ATR's on about 5 months ago.

Absolutely no road noise, good wear rate so far pretty happy
 Trust me, what could go wrong?

I put Silent Armors on my TDV6 SE in early Oct 09 and have found them great. Around town they are only marginally noiser than the OEM Wranglers and very stable. Did a 3000km trip from Adelaide to Victorian High Country and return in late Oct which included lots of off road, steep rocky tracks, mud and snow, and they took me everywhere I was happy to go. In the rough stuff they were equal to a D2 with big chunky muddies. Very stable on the highway at 110kph.
It's too early to judge wear rate but so far...very happy. Very Happy

Peterall do you mind me asking how much the Silent Armors were?
 2012 MY13 SDV6 SE D4 Ipanema Sand with Almond leather
2012 TDI Passat - they reckon the DSG is crap, I reckon it's awesome
2010 MY11 Mitsubishi Challenger - Gone (it was a "Challenging Year")
2007 MY08 TDV6 SE - gone

Dan, I paid $430 each for the Silent Armors.
90 Rangie...I think the ride and handling on bitumen is about the same as the OEM Wranglers.
