FWIW:

Years ago I put the Blue Streaks on and drove on the street for a while.
Pros: They looked good. They stick like glue.
Cons: I had 4 flats in 250 miles. The tread is extremely thin. They pepper the rear fender with grit. They may be predictably dangerous on a wet street. I now use them for some occasional track driving.

A few years ago I mounted the Billboard tires for street use.
Pros: They look great. The tread height is great for street driving. No flat, yet.
Con: It's also a sticky tire and peppers the rear fender, but somewhat less than the Blue Streak tire. Just some more 'patina'.
