I need a good set of sticky tires for stock 17'' rims on my 04 GTO. I want something i can drive in the rain and snow but also something i can go to the track with. I plan to go to the track once or twice a month. I daily drive the car so they have to be ok on the street.

Any suggestions would be helpfull.

Nitto 555R's I love mine

Nittos 555r last longer, but MTs ET Streets hook up better!! both are good tires, depends f u wanna sacrifice a little less tracton for longer lasting tires. I noticed u may drive in rain/snow. i think Nitto 555r is better all around. ET Streets=crap in rain (not sure about snow since i live in hawaii. LOL), but good at the track.

Rain, Snow and dragstrip .. you're asking too much of ANY tire. Sticky tires turn rock hard in the cold.

Yep.

As for the above responses. He said snow. Any DR or summer performance tire is going to be dangerous in snow. Rain is another story. I've heard the Nitto DR's aren't bad. The Goodyear GS-D3 is probably the best rain/dry tire out there though. Just don't let it see snow.

When it gets cold out though nothing is going to grab. Just physics.

As others said, rain, snow, and dragstrip don't mix. For DD, you need an ultra-high-performance all season tire - like the BFG G-force SS/AS. Go to tirerack.com and search in your size - there are a variety. You don't want a dedicated summer tire.

For the strip, you'll need an extra pair of wheels with drag radials, like the MT DR's suggested above.

Nitto drag radials ftmfw rain sleet or snow you are good to go. They work really good on the street and the track as well. Just a small burnout and off to the races.

Well where im at really rains more then it does snow. I was looking at those Nitto's. They do good in the rain and at the strip? Like isaid in the first post i only plan to go to the track maybe once a month.

Face it, you need one set of tire's and rims for the winter and summer. I recommend the Mickys for the summer tire of choice. As the winter tires go I perfer with Blizaks.

oxymoron.

It is not smart to drive any summer (anything sticky) in any kind of snow.

It is questionable to drive a lot of DRs in the rain....
