Default The Brand New NT05R's are fantastic

Looks like you have a pre 600 series, so according to the dealers comments you can't fit them. The new Nitto's,the NT05R drag radials (not the NT05) are terrific. Not gonna get a lot of miles out of them, but they are very sticky. I dropped a full second off my E.T. at the track with just the tire swap. I still use them on the street, I have the 17's so the low profile sidewall is probably better than 15's. You may not be able to autocross them, but I feel a lot safer under acceleration. They don't break free near as much and stick better than my Goodyear Eagle F1's did.
