I have a set of 315/35/17 on my streetlites I havnt put to the test yet. Tryin to get this thing done so brett can do his thing and get it tuned. Not 800rwhp but 500-550 hopefully 
They are softer than the nittos but imo nothing like the mickeys. I'll be really surprised if they can compare. But like I said, I havn't actually put them to the test yet.

in the other toyo thread i posted this,
I just used up my set of 315/35r17's, I love/loved them they are completely done now, I had the BFG's before and they sucked in comparison as far as hooking up, I drove my buddys car with a bigger stall and M/T's and his spun worse than mine, that would be expected though if the tires hook the same, I cut 1.85 60ft's with no problem, I would cut better 60 ft's if I had a bigger stall or more power, the problem was not the tires they hooked great, just didnt have the power/stall. I love driving them daily. As with any race tire they suck in the rain etc. But for the money they were great.
Oh and I got 7k miles out of them, I treat tires like **** so thats no surprise

They are 3.75mm wider (tread patch wise, 315mm x .65 = 204.75, 345 x .6 = 207) than my M/T's on the Fikse's but they will be taller so we'll have to see.
I'll keep ya posted!

I got a buddy of mine that bought a set for his 402 ci powered Fbody. I rode with him and they definitely brought the car outta the hole like a missle. However, he only got about 8,000 mi outta them before they were bald! If you're not worried about mileage then I'd say go for it. I thought they were worth the money as far as a good hooking tire goes. Hope this helped.
