More reviews on NT05 tires
I just got done driving 45 min down the river we call a freeway. It was raining so hard it was hard to see.
I was able to drive at 70mph the entire time while everybody else was slowing down to 50mph. I had 0 hydroplane problems and was able to weave in and out of traffic with perfect traction. Something I couldn't do before. When I got off the freeway I decided to test out the traction with 1/2 inch of water on the road. Completely stuck to the road and the car took off like it does when it's dry out. I am so impressed with these tires I'm gonna buy another set for the front. |
Had them at the track yet?

these tires have been catching my eye lately. So from what i have been reading these tires handle amazing in the corners. But how are they in a straight line. I see you are packing some Power. How do they stand up to your launches? im sure for me they'd be fine with the launch since i just have some bolt ons. . But im still trying to decide between the NT05 and the 555.
Are the NT05 like a Drag radial material or no? i still want a tire that is going to last a while. |
I don't go to the track much and haven't been since I put these on. When I launch hard on the street the grab much harder then my old nitto DR's.

damn. ok im definitely picking up a pair. a guy on moddedmustangs.com said they are kick ass too and they are the best tires he's ever had. he is supercharged too.
http://www.moddedmustangs.com/forums...ats-today.html thanks for the heads up man. |
I thought with those big bars missing from the tire, they'd have less traction.... How does that work?
|
Those big bars missing give the water a place to go rather then stay under the tire and make it float. The flat strip is in the middle is where you get all the traction.
|
Right, the wet conditions part I knew. But why wouldn't the tires benefit from having a larger middle strip?
|
I keep hearing more and more good things about these. I really want to get Nittos Invo tire but they dont have 17x275...lame
|
Good review. I need some new fronts and I'll have to look into them. Will I see any difference between going 255 vs 275 on fronts? I can't rotate my tires anyways b/c of the DR's out back.
