I went with the new Hankook Ventus K110 in a 295 width (235 in the front). These look soooo much better and my car rides a lot better too, but the extra weight has added about a .1 to my 60' times. I've only been to the track once since putting them on and could only manage 1.9x 60's on a day when Mimi05SRT6 was getting 1.8x He does run Nitto drag radials, but the GS-D3's always peformed about the same as his Nittos (with good track prep). I also need to figure out how much of a burnout to do with the new tires.

Oh well, that's the price you pay I guess. I might be able to get to the track one more time this year to verify. Otherwise, testing will have to wait 'til the new year.
