If you want it to work well on the street and on the track, while still lasting 15,000 miles, Nitto 555r's.

If you want it to work well on the street and on the track alittle bit better, and replacing them in 5,000-10,000 miles, M/T ET Street Radials.

Nitto recently came out with the NT05R which is supposed to compete with the MT. Anyone used these yet? My 555R's have just about reached their life expectancy and I am debating between the new Nittos and MT's

havent heard of it. going to check it out right now....checked it out, sticking with the et street radial II for my next tire. the 555r's have been a great tire, but im ready to step it up.
