With pressure in them they ride fine, but low pressure, as in any tire, they get squirrely, and try to ride the road swaying side to side, m/t e.t.s are bad mofos, even though my car doesnt have monster torque, i can still light em up good on the street, but they beat radials bye far, on the track they hook awesome, just have to drop some pressure, i can actually feel them wrinkle when i accelerate, i dont know how long they last, but the softer the compound the faster they wear.

I have been drivin 100 mi round trips to work everyday with them on, around 70-80 mph on the freeway, no problems, except you can hear a little more road noise, im putting some in layaway when i give these back, screw dragradials, these are where its at, i never knew my car could pull that hard lol....Oh but on rainy days, I would try and stay off the roads, but i do that anyways.
