They are pretty darn good street tires. Worked fine in the wet too. Maybe not good snow tires, but here in Southern California, they work impressively.

They aren't as radical drag tires as the MT ET Streets, or Hoosiers for that matter. (Hoosiers are what I last used as drag radials, but would never daily drive on them like my NT555Rs.)

I think they pretty much perform almost as good as my NTO5Rs also.

And they are good for consistant 3.4-3.5 second 0-60 times in my car.
