I will use these to move my car so I can get the lawn mower out but really plan on slicks and new wheels for the fall and winter storage. Oh wait I don't drive my car let alone race it so why would I need slicks other than just to say "Hey I got slicks! and yo dawg check out my bling bling"

Fixed

I am waiting on the TB. I plan on going back to the dyno 2nd weekend of June so.......hard to say if I will go to the track in 95-100+ degree heat.

Ahhh come on with all that power and fanciness you should still beat my time that I ran in 80 degree heat even if you run in 90 degree heat! You should dip below 90 at night... I just checked the weather and its cooler there then it is here.

Nice tread. Unfortunately a treadwear of 000 will not work for my 60 miles a day commute - at least not for long.

Are they taller then the quoted specs? I know my 265/40 18 are listed at 26.5" but are taller, could see the 295's being closer to 28".
