    I used them in fermoy and was not impressed with them one bit, I'd say they would be half ok with medium kinda hp but if uv decent horsepower I wouldn't bother with them.

    Iv used them in mondello on practise days... Im no pro class drifter but i think there shite!!

    I found lumps of the tire missing, (not delamiating), chunks of rubber comming off the tire & no grip with them either!

    Iv used them a few times & only because i got them chaep! Other wise i wouldnt waste my money on them....
