Does anyone here daily drive on 335 Drag Radials?

Iam thinking about getting some Hoosier 335/30/18 DOT drag radials for my back wheels. i have 18x10 deep dish wheels in the back. how will they handle in the rain? does anyone dailly drive in these tires? how dangerous is it?

heres some hoosier 315's.. so i guess 335 should be alittle wider

They may be DOT, but they are NOT made for rain, no where for the water to go. Your tire life on the street would not be good even if you stayed in nice weather.

Do you honestly NEED that much/kind of tire, it's basicly a slick with a couple of small grooves for tread. If you want better traction AND the abilty to daily drive and still get some good life out of, try the Nitto 555r's. You will only get about 5000 miles out of the Hoosiers, the Nitto's can last up to 20,000.
