Anybody running one of these premium gates blue racing serpentine belts?

K070795RB





I have read some reviews online of people having issues with the blue backing wearing off and galling up on the idlers causing issues (mostly the Subaru guys).

Anyone have one on their car and can give some feedback, love it, hate it, worth the premium price?

It seems to me that you get to do the first review, gratz let us know how it is.

On the other note it should be just fine. I mean its a belt the worst thing that can happen is that it will rip.

Looks like it, don't think it will cause any issues, just curious if anyone was running one.
