I've only tested the first two and my answer is that it depends on how you drive the car and the surface. The Hoosier has so much grip that you have to be careful about your steering angle--just unwinding the steering wheel coming out of the corner a little too slow can be like dragging the brakes---especially bad on an HStocker. If you can use the grip and are cognizant of that...good. If you like to dance or slide the car at all--I've had better luck w/ the Kumho on the Hstockers.
