Default 20" Nitto Question

What size and model Nitto are you running with a staggered 20x9 and 20x10 set? Any other tire combo info would be helpful also. Thanks.

Thinking about getting the 305/40/20 in the rear. I believe they are the NT555 drag radials. Heard good things.

Front - Nitto NT555 size 255/35/20 on 20x9 wheel
Back - Nitto NT555 size 275/35/20 on 20x10 wheel

I like them and they seem to be pretty popular. They are a good looking tire. The tread pattern looks good.

Can't run staggered with my Shelby Razor since it only come in 20x9 but I do run Nitto 555's 265x35 all the way around and love them!

Same as mine, I originally thought that for the additional $200 per tire for the 275s, that I might just go 255 all the way around, but I am glad I got the bigger rears, they look way better. I love the look of the 275s on the 10" rim

I just can't get past putting them on my car since I see ricers with huge nitto stickers on them

I tell you what will look good is the 305/35/20 Nitto NT555R Drag Radials. If you don't want that big of a tire. You can drop down to the 285/30/20 or even go with the Toyo Proxes 4 295/30/20. That tire looks great. All the sizes will fit your car.

why not put the biggest you can fit without going to a D/R like the invos 295/35/20

IMO the 275 look like pizza cutters from the rear especially on 20's
