Let me know how they do 
Im currently running Falken Azenis ST115 225/45/17 but i think the added overall diameter actually hurts me more on the track more than the extra 10mm of width, any idea how these would compare to a true drag radial like the Khumo Ecsta V710 on the track (1/4 mile)? I wanna go with a true drag radial - but if i can get equal or close to the same performance out of these and be able to use them on the street itd be awesome!

all i can say is WOW!! i don't think i'll ever buy a different brand/model of street tire ever again. 1st gear still spins, 2nd catches pretty well, 3rd on up is glued to the road. i haven't tried to take it from 1st all the way up yet shifting at redline yet as my synchros wont let me shift into the next gear at redline. i plan on changing my gear oil to some mt90 synthetic real soon, and i'll get back to you guys on how that goes.
if anyone is looking for some really sticky, amazingly grippy tires. then go pick up a set of these. they are a god send. without a doubt the best street tires i have ever owned, and moderately priced.
im seriously thinking about going back to the dyno to see what kind of power its really making.
