Don't do it. They Suck!  I put 4 on my wife's 100SW (Non-Q)about 18 months
ago and I just replaced them with 4 Dunlops (A much better tire).  Luckily,
I bought them at Sears and they prorated them with no hassle.  The
"Squarelli's" wore very poorly for a tire that is "all-season and a medium
compound".  I don't remember exactly but the Dunlop's were similar in price.
