I happen to LOVE the ZRi's
they are a very quiet, smooth riding tire, with excellent wet and dry performance. These are the kind of tires you can drive 100mph in the rain on the interstate with confidence. However, they seemed to wear exceptional fast too.... well most tires do with me. I can wear out a set of tires in 10-15k miles with a good alignment
Agree with all you say.
I had ZRi's on a past car, they were awesome. My father has HRi's, on his Maxima, they're OK... They are noisey, and obviously not as grippy as the Z's. Not a junk tire, but not incredible either.
