A friend gave me 2 same size and haven't had a chance to try them but hope someone chimes in on this to see if it's even worth me taking them to the track..

road race tires will be different compound material and heating cycle. If they are on wheels already, i dont see harm in a test, but i dont see an improvement.

Yea this guy has them on some 16" Camaro wheels but didn't wanna buy if they really suck! But they should be better then just a regular tire don't you think?

depending on the compound. different types of race tires are made up and are softer or harder than others. odds are they wont as they were designed for road race. if if get them for super cheap, go for it, but i think you would have fun autocrossing...

I've never run those before but I have run all kinds of road race & autocross slicks. Put some heat in them and they'll get pretty sticky. Just drop the air pressure down to try and deal with a really stiff sidewall and I bet they'll do pretty good. You can always put all 4 on and go carve some corners. :devil:
