They are well treaded and directional. The tread is deep enough to run light rain, and seem to hold up well through 8-12 sessions depending on your driving style. They seem to come to temperature quickly and are pretty consistent through out the session. The only down side for myself is they don't seem to give a lot of warning when they are going to disengage. Could also be driver error with too much throttle exiting corners.</div>
