1.488 On rear for the Queen
I will have to disagree about the M/T DRs not liking a big burnout.. A local guy is friends with the originator of the M/T DR design and he was told that they need to be heated just like a slick and that in most cases a good burnout is needed.. I know first hand that on 3-4 of my friends cars you have to get them good and hot for them to work to their full potential. Yes your car could be different, but thats just my first hand experience with the tires. Of course, 2-3 of my friends are running 5/6spds so that could be the difference.

You are wasting your time trying to hook on the Nittos.. The Nitto DRs are a good tire for an all around daily driven street car, but when it comes to actually trying to race at the track you are not gonna get good peformance from the Nittos. And lose the 17's.. Thats pointless as well.
