I've got their whitewalls for Ninco Classics. I'm not a fan. But they're the only whitewalls I've been able to buy.

Best I`ve found for replacements on my "skinnies" t-jets. No opinion on anything else.

I bought several pairs of Gel claws and they were bouncy on every car I tried on. By that I mean they are so soft that they actually bounce the car rather than grip. Useless. PG tires grip without the bounce. Nearly perfect tires.

Never had good luck with them on wood.
