    If you are looking to get better traction out of your car, I highly recommend these tires. However, they only lasted me about 7 months. I will admit, I did race the car at the drag strip ALOT throughout those 7 months. They hook well on the street and so-so on the track. You still have to roll into your launch at the track but you can get on the throttle much quicker than you would be able to with regular street tires. As long as you do the speed limit, they are just fine in the rain.






    Although the factory calls for a 225/55r17 tire, you can easily fit a 245/45r17 Nitto NT55r on the stock wheels.







    Here's some pictures of how the tires wore down after 7 months of everyday driving and abuse.




    Overall, I like these tires and just put a new pair on. If you like tires that will last a long time and are good in the rain, these aren't for you. However, if you are looking to get good traction at the track or on the street, these tires do pretty well.
