I spin my nittos through 3rd constantly but if you work the throttle right (youll learn if your boosted) youll be alright. they also do some pretty sick burnouts

I'm running them in the same setup as you are looking at 275/40 & 245/45 Overall, I think they are a great tire for the money. At the track, i've found the best pressure for me is about 18psi. The hook decent, but they are no MT by any means. My best 60ft has been 2.01 on these. Since going FI, they spin----bad out the hole--the same for nitrous. Like I said tho--overall they are a great tires, and I will buy them again.

I've had no issues in the rain whatsoever...

Sry but what exactly is FI? And im pretty much stock with the exception of an intake and some flowmasters. You think they'll catch well for me?

FI = Forced Induction (.. in this case)

did a quick Google search to find a full list of the 555 sizes:

It almost seems like you need to figure out what TIRES you want (or can afford) and then decide on wheels! I took a look today at the 18" Shelby GT black bullitts and the price was too high.
So I'm just getting a set of take off 17's with the Pirellis and having them painted glossy black!
The 555's were a slightly more expensive option but since they don't have them in a 55 series, I'd rather save the extra cash and stick with what I feel is going to give me a better ride. Just too many potholes here in L.A. for my daily driver.

Wouldn't matter. 10mm isn't enough. For the track I have a truly STICKY tire that is-------275/40/17-----------and guess what? They Hook[&:]

Had 315s. Agree with above.Average at the track, useless on the street. Switched to M&H 325 for daily use. Much softer rubber but not so good in the rain.Ride to work nowis 0.7 miles through a 25 mph zone, so no worries about wet roads. Car is in 1000 pieces, won't be back on the road for about 3 weeks.
