I really did buy two dozen.. I won't need tires for either of my cars for ages. Sick of paying $700 for a pair of rears that last 5k miles or less

^They stick AWESOME on the street, but they get greasy after a while on the road course.

Would they be worth using at the drag strip?

Probably better than your average street tire... It is an autoX tire though so won't be anything like a drag radial.

I thought they were sold out already. they posted this up on the gto forum around thanksgiving time and for the tires they didn't have they just cancelled the orders.

I ordered the last two 315s earlier. Shipping from Utah. Just wondering how theyll be on my 10.5in wide rims.
