This is a great tire. I have gone through two sets of these tires. They warm up fast and stick like glue. I was knee down in turn two without tire warmers on the first session. They could last a little longer. I had to replace them after three trackdays. I am an intermediate track rider so I put these tires to the test. I plan to order another set. I haven't used them in the wet so I gave the tire an average wet score.

Simple as that, they are very soft rubber, warm up fast, stick well. Not so great for dispersing water, tires are already significantly worn after 1000 miles.

Awesome track day tire, excellent dry traction, do not require tire warmers. I will buy these tires again and again. Have never tried them in wet conditions. Last set I got 5/6 track days out of them. Very reasonable price at Superstore!!

So I am relatively new to riding and have only had the stock tires to compare to. But that being said, I live in the canyons so ride them every day as well as highway, they have worked great for both conditions. The only issue that I have had with them is that I have only had them for about 4000 miles and am showing wear bars on the rear crown and my front tire tread pattern is pretty much nonexistent except for the crown of the tire.

After having these tires on my bike for about a month now, I have to get some more, but I will say it will be these amazing tires. Grip on turn-in is shocking if you have never ridden semi slicks before. Shocking, I mean shocking, amounts of grip when accelerating and under braking these are second to none. I have ridden full slicks on a track, these are on par if not better in some ways than those. I will be buying these tire from here on out not to mention the price is great for a set.

Mounted these on my 2006 GSX-R 1000 for Jennings GP. These tires had INSANE grip at high lean angle; slip was very linear and predictable, even fun under power. A midday storm enabled me to attest to its superb wet traction (on a clean racetrack at 100mph+). The front tire turns in easily, and provides great feedback at all times. The rear connects well; is almost slick on the shoulders, making it extremely capable in transitions and acceleration. Tread life is impressive.

I bought these for a track day that didn't happen, so I've been using them to commute and play on the twisties (dry play time, some morning mist during the commute). Had great stick-ability from the get-go in all conditions. The edges are nice and soft and show wear quickly, but that's what I'd expect from a trackday tire. Will be buying another set soon - gladly!
