Raptor ZR

Ultra High Performance Summer

Michelin North America Inc. has introduced a new line of ultra-high performance tires -- the Riken Raptor ZR.The Riken Raptor ZR tire has a directional tread design and a "waved" center rib to help channel water away from the footprint; oversized swept-back lateral rib elements for maximum grip during cornering; and rubber compounds that help the tire maintain its shape.

Asking $650 Brand New Set of 4 never mouted

Those tires are really nice, I think if I got a muscle car I would run something like that in the rear and then something more street like in the front.
