Yup, factory treaded, but just barely. They really are a "race" tire cleverly disquised as a street tire. Their almost as good as the full blown road race yellow letter slicks. An excellent choice for a high horse power street driven Cobra. For some reason they are not a very common choice among Cobra owners, which I think has led to some confusion. They are a BIG tire and present clearance issues on some Cobra's.

They are BIGGER than the yellow letter slicks which just barely clear on my car! I don't think I could run G7's. Kirkhams have great clearance, early ERA's, not so much.

Well done Dan. You know when you posted some of your early 1/4 mile ET's in the 13 range, I thought you were going down in flames man. It was a dark moment and certainly added to the suspense.
You have the wrong tire again, they easily fit in the wheel well, however they arn't disguised as a street tire at all, they say right on the tire not legal for highway use. They are an inch smaller than the billboards height wise, I just googled it and this is a picture http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Goody...esQQxZ31QQyZ10
