Default Yeah another one of these... Nittos? Advice please?

Okay... for just bolt on power levels for my Z'... will nittos 555r be fine for hooking up ( 315/35/17's by the way )?

The car is not a DD.... and i rarely get to the 1320ft. I ran a best of 12.9 with just LT's and sumitomos (the suck) and I want traction now... oh man how I would like some traction.

So nitto 555R's?... or BFG Drag Radial 2? (I know they hook better but do I really need them?) the car MIGHT see a cam before the beginning of september, not sure.

Everyone is going to tell you to get a rearend first. I have NittoDRs and run them at 18psi at the track hook great with my M6. You best bet is to get a et street or et drag with the M6. I ride the clutch out to help my rearend live longer, no dumping.

yeah the rearend isn't an issue.... I know how to ride the clutch out to launch and preserve the rear.. and either way if I blow my rear its not my DD and I would just order a 9" for it heh.
