Already tried. It is very good for roaming and engaging; Garen-specific it is absolutely phantastic for his E, you become faster while you spin with your next AA doing more damage. It was very hard for my enemies to run or even dash away unless they had a stun. Wait after the spin until you have 100 stacks for extra damage and slow!

I built it as first item, but that is underwhelming. Do that only if you cannot catch your lane opponent by a tiny bit or want to roam ASAP. I will stick to Sunfire cape first (more damage and waveclear), with DMP (is that right?) as fourth or fifth item
