Not nearly as good as BFGs, but think you get a bit more mileage out of them.

My view of them was that were they better than a true street tire yes but if your expecting rolling up to the track and cutting some good times with them its not the tire. Like i said they may have changed them since then. They drove ok on the street but in rain it was a death wish. I belief everyone who tried them cut .2 tenths of there 60's somewhere in that range. Not horrible not great.

555r's are decent, but far from a real drag radial, thats what i have on my camaro and they hook good, of course i have 315 wide tires not some rail thin 205s
