The tire you run should be chosen by the needs of the driver and decided by ones budget... What are they?

Pepe Choosing a new tire thread and will help you figure it out.

Sounds like you may want some traction at the strip? If so, I would recommend you pick up a set of tires for year 'round use and a second set of wheels for the 1/4 mile trips.

haha, is what im really looking for is a set of tires for daily driving. But they have to be 20's. Should Nittos not be a choice for DD'ing?



EDIT: I guess im going with Cragar 20x9's with NITTO Extreme Performance NT555 (255-35/20)
