Tribal tread! They look expensive.

Tread pattern looks interesting. Put a review to see how it rides on your C2's.

fsttyms1

Tread pattern is very interesting. The 2 grooves are deep for water (though the C2 is a horrible rim for rain, it collects water in the area recessed to bolt the wheels together throwing the balance off when on the hwy)

Ill write a review. Ill be putting about 1k miles on them between today and wed/thurs

Nice!
Truly a track guy, as much rubber on the pavement as possible.

So far i like them I drove 250 miles today in pouring rain. They were really good. No Hydroplaning

would those be good in snow?

I don't believe these are in away safe for the snow as they appear to be an ultra high performance summer tire. There are some performance summer tires that carry the M+S certification, but by the looks of the tread pattern these don't look to fit the requirement. They look like excellent tires though and I'm totally diggin' the unique tread pattern. I looked into what each section does and it sounds like Nitto knows their stuff.
Nice buy

I'm really enjoying my general UHPs so far. Also a great tire with lots of tread. I've also read they can be used in LIGHT snow (which I would never do anyway haha).

Judging from the big-block tread pattern, those are high performance summer tires; not a chance in snow.

You shouldn't be forced to drive around on those wheels. Pack em up and ship em back to me. I'll even pay for shipping. Can you tell I STILL miss my wheels. It's funny, ever since I sold them, I've really let my car go. I even let my kids eat in the back seat.

No one should be forced to go through that. Send them to me

My father in law runs these on his Ligenfelter Z06. (rear wheels are 19x13)

fsttyms1

Hell no. They even have a warning not to drive in near freezing temps (as do all Z rated summer performance tires. I will NEVER own a all season tire again. Strictly Summer tires and Snow tires.

Yep, summer only

fsttyms1

Hey some times i get stuck in down pours. My car is and never will be a garage queen (ill never do that to any car) It just means that when i get home i have to spend a hr or 2 with the buff ball and polish making the wheels all purdy. Like said, any time you want to see them again let me know ill send you a pic of what your missing

ICE cold... I need a track review

So far teh grip is really good. It hasnt gotten above a cloudy damp 55 deg here yet but what i have gotten out of them is great. They have much better grip taking off than my Hankook S1 Evos i had.

If it makes you feel any better i cleaned them up today after driving in the rain for 2 days. I get compliments on them often. Thanks again.

Fsttyms1, how are they compared to your previous Eagle F1's ?

fsttyms1

Nothing i have ever driven touches the F1 GSD3 in the wet. Period... That tire was glued to the pavement in the wet. Even at 4/32nds that tire wouldnt hydroplane. Dry grip, its hard to say. That tire was on my 16s with a higher profile and my older suspension not lowered. That tire did handle very very well with that setup so i could only imagine how it would be on the new setup. So far i am very pleased with the invos though.
