I cannot stand my nittos. They wouldn't stick at the track. Best 60ft I got was a 2.001[:'(]They are all right on the street and rain. I've had mine since September and put150 miles on them a week. My dad runs Bfg's on his 67 Chevelle SS. He's got a stock suspension and chasis and puts out518rwtq at 1100rpm. He gets 1.9 60ft times out of them.

Hell, I can get a 1.9 on street tires, I imagine I can get that on my Nittos.

I have the M/T et's on my 85 coupe with a 351w. The car runs 7.20 in the eight and they hook really well at a track that is notfamous forhooking. I run about 9psi in them. They do wear fast on the street. 60 Ft times are in the low 1.40's.

Something ppl don't realize is you have to smoke the crap out of the nittos for them to hook. Track prep is a key also. Here's a vid of when I ran 17" nittos a couple years ago. No problem hooking.
