If you can get them in 315 for 99$ I say give them a try.

Where can you get them for only $99 or a 315 tire close to that price?

i got them, too. They are nice, i think they have some good grip, but not for racing. Raced a srt-4 just a min ago, and dropped back half a car cuz i was spinnig 1,2 gears. Oh, well, they hook for me in the twisties tho.

they are pretty sticky when new but after 5-6 months they seem to lose grip dramatically, and they won't hook under 45* even with a decent burnout but for the price you can't beat them for a DD.
