Feedback on TOYO R888 Proxes ?

http://www.tiredeals4less.com/TOYO_P...9_10_P4214.cfm

seems to be a good solution for traction issues for poeple with 19s. I have not seen any other semi-slick type tire in 19s like this one.
Has anybody used them? Any feedback? how do the y feel on the street?

THanks!

EDIT:

I NOW GOT THIS TIRES AND.....DAMMM

YES I KNOW.......I can get 18s for the track later on (18s are cheaper too)...but nicerlooking rims are in 19s-20s(specially if you have a widebody style car liek the Z, 18s and smaller dont look too hot IMO, like 19-20) which is more what id run on the street...... thats the whole point of this thread... since this ones come in 19s
http://marktg.toyotires.com/file/30029.pdf
it gives you the option to use bigger rims with a "track tire"...
