Message I bought them second hand with 4 track days already on them. The previous owner had them shaved down prior to the first heat cycle, so the tread blocks were very shallow compared to the tire in stock form. I would not use the shaved tires in the wet, but the full depth tread should offer mild wet pavement performance to/from the track. I ran them at close to -2* of camber up front and got even shoulder wear. Being able to rotate front to back, left to right maximized the wear for my use as well.

They were quite a bit louder than street tires, but they were mounted to a dedicated set of track wheels and noise was a non-factor. Once I dialed in the cold and hot pressures, they were one of the best mods in terms of driving performance I made to the car, aside from more seat time.
