I have those exact tires. They wear decently but I wouldnt know as they are not my daily driving tires. They hook reasonably well but dont ever go too fast (over 50mph) in rain with them on or good luck keeping the car straight. For $126, jump on it.

A good freind of mine has them on his occational driver, they seem to wear pretty quickly on the street and hook well, on the track they hook about like a street legal soft compund does (MT Sportsman Pros etc). I am buying them as well for my 97 WS6 except the 275/40-17s are 133$ at Sams. The # (say 275) is the tread width in millimeters.

heeeeeeey, i never thought of checking at wallyworld! good call. I wonder if they will stock the new 315/30/18 BFG Radial?

I run nitto's myself. In general you usually hear people say that the BFG's wear a little faster than the nitto DR but also hook a little better. I say get em, sounds like a good price. From tirerack.com they would come out to 140-150 dollars including shipping.
