We got a set of these when they were first released through a local tire company. They let us AutoX in them for a few events.
Overall, they were a pretty good tire. They have a little too deep of tread blocks and will squirm when cornering heavily, and they leave a nice audible screech when breaking loose. But for a tire that can be drove to the track, raced on, and then driven back home, they perform pretty well. They did not compare to the old set of tires we were using, some Kumho MX's, and we promptly returned them back, but they were above average on traction (cornering).
If they could manage to shave/heat-treat them, they would probably grab as nice as an equal MX, but otherwise, they are inferior.
Btw, the test vehicle was a '96 ACR Neon. Consistent 1st-2nd place locally.
