I'm considering the same thing and wonder if it would be worth it. I've already got a full set of wagon wheels in the corner of the garage that are just collecting dust. I figure it would be better than buying a whole new set of wheels AND tires.
When I get my motor work done this winter I will be pushing 500+ rwhp and will need a little help with traction at the strip. I figure I may only hit the track 5-7 times next year so its not like I am going to make a living out of this. I just need something else so I dont ruin my HRE's and Michelins.

When you get them, get the 555R's for the rear and the 555's for the front. 
I've cut 1.8 60' times without a problem, with a slipping clutch. I can't wait to see what they will do now that I have a good clutch in there.
