I have a set for my 65 Mustang,I picked up about .4 of a second at the drag strip over standard street tires.....Mine have warn pretty good,I have used them on the street very little,usually when I come back from the drag strip and have not had time to put my street tires back on for a few days.... I would NOT recommend them for the street,road course or the front of any car.....The side walls are really soft and made for drag racing,if you run them on the street,you have to put a lot of air in them for cornering and I find at higher air pressures you lose the extra grip you gained by using them in the first place..... At the drag strip I ran 14 psi in mine...street you need at least 25 psi or more....Not real good on wet roads as the tread is very shallow.....
