It would be good to see how they compare to the GTP's.

The medial pro's look good, and similar to the GTP's. They come on 3 hardness ratings too, unlike the GTP's
One correction- The Medial Pro tires come in 4 compounds- 60 shore, 45 shore, 35 shore, and 25 shore. The shore ratings are for reference only, do not think of them like foam tire shore ratings. They are glued to a flat rim and have a super low profile. They do not use any sort of foam insert and do not require and belting or modification...other than maybe running a bead of glue to make sure they don't come undone. They have a molded-into the tire honeycomb insert. These tires last a long time.
I'll bring some to the Vegas race next month if anyone wants to pick some up.
