Nah, he's got different tires for the track. His Nittos are for the street. I'm thinking about picking up a pair too. Maybe then I can get on her without squeeling through third gear...

Yeah these r for the street might try them a few times at the track just to c what they do. Got them because I heard they are a great street tire for traction.

Under the right conditions they hook great. Most of my runs the street tire would have been better though. I wouldn't recommend doing a burnout with them though you won't have any tread left.

Nitto's(R'S) are good for the street...(Hooked better then The Track)
But at any hard shock to them they would break loose with my GT...( Side step a little)
And they are just as good as Sumitumos at the track...
I was running the same times with both types...(315/35/17 10.5 wheels)
I was getting about 10,000 Miles out of them once or twice to the track...
Sumo's about 15 to 16,000 similar grip...
I think Heater runs sumo's for daily grip...

I must say I am very happy with how these tires hook on the street. If with a little moisture on the ground from light ran they still felt good. I am for sure getting a pair of the wifes car.
