Anyone driven on these in the rain? Are the dangerous as hell like a drag radial?

Also anyone run them on the fronts as well?

City cruising mostly..

No need to worry about the Tire Shaving from 6/32″ down to 2/32″ With your power it wont take long to get the 2/32''

They do look to be good in the rain with that v tread

LOL.. I just want these for cruising tires. Something better then regular radials, yet handle like them.. About to pull the trigger on some HREs and looking at tire options.

I'll throw the CCWs/hoosiers on for playing

I run unshaven on all 4 corners on the street, no issues at all in the rain and they're fairly quiet on the highway.

I got a set of 4 R888s (275/40/17 fronts, and 305/35/18 rears) for 1,077.89, including shipping, at Tires Direct (about $50 cheaper than the link above). They are having a special on seasonal Toyo tires right now.
