I have nittos 555r's and they only hook well if you heat them up A LOT! If you are looking for a street/strip tire, a DR that I would recommend would be the MT drag radial for sure.

it helps to get a wide size, also, and to run the proper PSI. you gotta be able to launch the car properly, like think a quick clutch slip from a higher rpm. the timer(s) don't start until you leave the 12 inch rollout beams.

If this thread is about street DD tires, and he has 555's...Then why would he talk about 555R's in a topic where track traction HAS THE VALUE OF ABSOLUTE DICK?

it's right in front of your face. AR said nittos.

also, the 555R's can be DD just like the 555's.

do these look like 555R's?


please. tell me how you can look at the non-drag radial being discussed with whitevenom-friendly pictures, and tell me its about drag radials.

"but he just said nittos"

nittos + picture = 555 street radial. pictures. DO YOU SEE THEM

I DD 555R's and a buddy of mine DD's KDW drag radials. They both do great. The cool thing about the KDW's is that you can buy a regular street front and DR rear and the tread pattern matches.
