I have used the HPI drift tires (premounted on wheels: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXMRD4&P=ML) and they are ok. IMO, they have too much grip compared to the ABS.

I like the ABS (with my BL setup) much easier to drift (running on standard street ashphalt.

If you want an easy setup, go with the ABS (easy to install on the stock 10th scale wheels).....very easy to drift.
