i know this is a couple month old thread, but im looking to buy tires and these tires look nice and the price is nice also. Anyone heard or used these yet? I was thinking about buying them... lighter/cheaper than the et street.

I think if they were that great there would be lots of people posting about them here and on other forums.

I have a pair in the 325/50/15 size. I have yet to use them, but my friend who did a tire development exercise with Goodyear on these tires said they were equivalent to the M/T.

Any updates on anybody running these? M/T 275/50/15 are on back order until mid August. I was trying to determine to go with these or BFG's.

i've got a set of the Eagle SS 275/60/15's.....they are alright. i probably wont pick them up again. i had better luck on my 17" BFG's....best i've been able to muster w/ my bird is a 1.72 60'. i expected better out of a 28" radial. i think next time i'm going w/ the tried and true MTs and or 28" BFGs...

i do believe if i got rid of my front sway bar, and put different shocks and springs on it, i could do better for the 60'...well and the driver mod :-p i can't complain though, they have lasted me a while and are good at making cool smokey burnouts. on Nitto 555r's, i've had 0 luck...at the track and or on the street. i wouldn't recommend them to anyone who has anything more than bolt-ons done to their car.
