Im gettin these soon as well, 275's and 315's FTW lol. They will be my summer wheel combo cause Im getting TT2's and I dont want the rain to ruin them. So they hopefully will last me a couple years considering they will only be used for a quarter to half the year.

Several of my buddies have them for Burn tires. One of them ran the 1/4 in his 04 Cobra 527RWHP and ran a 14.9. That was SO SO funny. He will never live it down. So then he dropped on some better tires and ran 11.2. We shut up. But they are fun tires none the less. Great for DD and Price.

Absolute terrible tire for rain. I had them on my SS (315) and driving home one day in the rain I hydroplaned and hit a telephone pole. Now I no longer have my SS because of these tires. And no, none of it was my fault. I was going 10 under the speed limit and wasn't doing anything stupid (knowing I had those tires back there). Not to mention the tires had maybe 900 miles on them. They were a fine tire to drive around in everyday, but whenever it rained...it was a scary ordeal. So my warning goes out to the owners! Be VERY careful in the rain with these tires.

I got HTRZII and although they don't hook for crap are pretty decent tires for the cash. Look much better than the HTRZs though.
