This is one of those threads that is here to help ou. IMO Riken Raptors are the worst tires ever invented. I have 205/40/17s, and they are horrid. They roll under sharp turns, absolutely no traction in the rain, so i'm not too sure they are going to do well. sorry...just had to rant, i almost slid into a light pole on my way home from work from sliding on dry surfaces at 35 mph!

I had the 255/45/17 version on my 300ZX. I took it to the track...

My BEST 60' was 2.3 seconds, if noone knows this is with an LSD and just a tiny bit of slip.

My first 60' was 2.9 spinning first and second past the 60'.

In the rain I would sink into it in 3rd and my speedo would jump to 115 and my car would just go sideways.

They absolutely suck, but, they look like they would perform REALLY well... looks can be decieving.

I even tried burning them down since I didn't drive the Z all winter and it still didn't help at all.
