Hoosier Pro Street

I think the age of this thread answers the question that I'm about to ask but are these an actual performance tire? I guess they're a pretty damn old design even if they are.

I called and spoke with a Hoosier tech support guy who gave me very little to go on with these tires. He couldn't say how they compared to the BFG Radial T/A (etc) class of tire. He said that they don't have a treadwear rating (though those aren't all that useful anyway) and he couldn't (or wouldn't) describe the type of compound (all season, summer only).

On the plus side, the do have a slightly higher speed rating than the 15" all season junk tires and they're available in a broad range of sizes.

On the downside, they're approximately 2x as expensive.

Any thoughts or experience with these tires?
