Has anybody tried those tires? I will be needing to take the winter
tires off of my '01 TL soon.

I have them on my 2004 Subaru Forester XT. I replaced the stock tires
immedietly. The Triple Treads are the best tires I have ever driven.
Steering response is excellent as are wet and dry traction. Snow hasn't been
a problem but hey, it's a Subaru. The tires have long tread wear rating and
are quiet and comfortable, plus they look cool.

They rated best in category at Tireracks website...
Data from Tirerack re: TripleTread (TT) vs HydroEdge (HE). Note that Triple
Treads beat the HydroEdge in EVERY CATEGORY. Note especially the difference
in Snow Traction! Also Cornering Stability. You can see the same survey
results at:
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/surveyresults/surveydisplay.jsp?type=AS

I can't imagine anybody choosing the HydroEdge over the TripleTreads. I've
driven them on my 04 Forester for two months and 5400km now. They are by far
the best all around tire I've driven. Pure winter tires will out corner and
stop them in the snow but then you'll be switching each season. IMO - Buy
the Triple Treads.

Would Buy again?         TT - 8.9, HE - 8.6
Rank Within Category.  TT -1, HE - 2
% vs best in category.    TT - 100%, HE - 95%
Dry Traction.                  TT-9.4, HE-9.2
Wet Traction.                 TT-9.5, HE-9.4
Hydro Resistance.          TT-9.5, HE-9.4
Snow Traction.               TT-9.1, HE-7.6
Cornering Stability.        TT-9.1, HE-8.8
Steering Response.         TT-9.2, HE-8.9
Ride Comfort.                TT-8.9, HE-8.6
Noise Comfort.              TT-8.9, HE-8.1
