I like them. They have great street traction. I don't drive on wet roads so not sure about rain traction. I bought these when I was planning to go to the track a lot this season but the track closed down/went out of business and I am on my way to Afghanistan anyway. If the track did not close I was going to pick up some 15x10s street lites for the track 
. What tires are you running?

Your car looks great. I was just looking at 17" Street Lites and wondering what a 17x11 might look like on my car with 315 NT05's so thanks for the pics.
Is your car lowered? Stock width rear? I'm just wondering if these would be true bolt on for me or if there was some in my future. Thanks.

remember that the wider tire is going to be heavier than the other tires, which negates the lighter wider wheel, yet gives the grip. so they are actually a good bit lighter of a wheel. it'd be better if we had the weights without tires.
