I haven't taken the car to the track with them yet but on the street. I can't praise them enough. Wet traction is incredible and dry traction is likely on par to a drag radial. I can barely spin with mine. They hook immediately unless I do a 4 grand clutch dump. lol They also have great treadwear. The only issue I've had with them is small stones like to get stuck in the tread and then pop out and scare the hell out of me at speed. They are only hitting inside the fenderwell so (shrug) who cares. Maybe one day I'll pelt some ricer. lol
