Is anyone riding with the Oakley Radar glasses? I love my half jackets, but think something with a little more coverage may be a good idea as my eyes do get wind-tired on long rides.

Any experience?

I've got the Radars and love them! I've had eye problems in the past, but haven't had any with the Radars.

I have them and love 'em. I actually bought the ones with the golf-specific lenses, since given their price, I wanted something I could use for cycling and golfing. The lens coating works very well and the sweat and gunk wipes right off without smudging. I imagine the coating would work well in the rain, but when does it ever rain here? Extremely comfortable. They are so comfortable and the lenses are so clear. So much so that I find myself wearing them around town when I am not cycling or golfing, which is supposedly a fashion faux pas, but who cares?

G30? Black Iridium? Other?

They work really well. Shed water, extreemly easy to clean!!

I have 2 pairs.
On black with polarized black iridium, Pitch style
the second mettalic red with vr28 black iridium non-polarized lens, PATH style.

I prefer the polarized lens, but they look huge on me.
The VR28 work great, highlight colors really well, and I think a nicer style.
So I use the VR28 when riding, and the black just sit there looking lonely..

Oakley has just been sold to Luxottica Group SpA for $2.1 billion.....:(

Clearly NOTHING is sacred....

I bought the flak jackets, same lens as the radar. I found them more comfortable, but a little less peripheral vision.
