These are both dedicated road race tires. So besides the very quick wear, you will probably lose more (street) launch & 60' from the UBER stiff sidewalls, than you will gain from the "as sticky as a DR" compound.That is, IF(street) launch/60' is ALL you are after (like 99.99999% of everyone else on here!).

Solid rears squat too, they wouldn't be so good for drag racing if they didn't.
