Light weight versions. I blamed it on a lack of rubber. I have a spray bottle of soapy water in the trailer. Spray the sidewalks of them and foamed everywhere. Only set I will ever own. A-B-A tested them against my MTs, both felt like dead hooking, 4 hun slower than the MTs. Three of that in 60'. Made a local bracket racer a deal on them. Two sets of MTs now.
If they are fastest for you, that's great. Besides the leaking, my car didn't like them.

I ran the MT radials when they where one of the first to offer a wide tire suitable for SS. Trouble was that sometimes I would just spin instantly after the trans brake release. The Hoosier tires seem to be much more forgiving.
