Is the car a stick or an auto? The NT05 drag radials seem to work alot better on an auto car than a stick car. My buddies both have 6-speed fbodies and one has NT-05's and the other has NT555's (both drag radials). The one with the NT05's doesn't hook on the street but the other one hooks awesome. A bunch of us drove them both back to back and all came to the same conclusion. I have seen some awesome 60's at the track with the NT05's though.

 

555s work best on the STREET

 

Yeah, I'm guessing he'd want the better tire for the street since it's a daily driver.

 

Yep 555s work awesome for multi purpose
