For street:
275 Nitto 555RII autocross = 9
315 Nitto 555R Drag = 10 (only because it is wider
)
275/315 Sumitomo HTR Z = 5 when new, 3 when worn and 1 when worn and in the wet.

First tire's
275/35/18 kumho Escta Supra's 5
Present tire's
285/35/18 Goodyear GS-D3's 10
But I'm comparing to Kumho's
The Kumho's don't even compare. With GS-D3's no more spinning from 3500rpms to redline in first gear.

My Sumitomo 315's would start to break loose at about 5k or so.
I can't hardly break loose my Nitto 315's. Dropping the clutch at 3k might break them loose, or it might slip the Z06 clutch. So lots of grip. I just take off easy now to prevent breaking my stock rear.
So the new D3's grip from 1500-redline. Sounds much safer to me.
245/50/16:
Stock: Goodyear GS-C- 8 (Dry) 8 (Wet)
Present: Kuhmo Ecsta 711- 2 (Dry) 1 (Wet)

275/40/17 BFG G-Force TA KDW - Ill give them a 9.
There really a nice tire with good grip and awesome handling. With my new TT2's, Im going with a G-Force Drag in the rear either 295 or a 315.
