You looking at the NT05 or NT05R?

2000z28franz

Well I saw the nt05r look even better tread for drag but oe wheels doesn't sell those they only have nt05. Do you think there's a big difference?

2000z28franz

after more research I think I'm going to go with nt555 up front and nt555r extreme drag in back. Still interested in what you guys have to say.

The difference between the NT05 and NT05R is pretty big in terms of traction, but of course they will wear out much quicker. The 555R will kind of be in between those two

Thanks for you help!! How you like 4.10s in the stock 10 bolt. I know alot of people say the stock 10 bolt is like glass but I want to change the gears to 4.10s too

I really like the 4.10's. With a 6 speed and 450 rwhp n/a it's perfect IMO. On the 150 shot not so much lol. The 10 bolt is better than some people give it credit for. Hard launces and wheelhop will kill it fast though. Plus sticky tires and 4.10's don't help either. I've been very lucky lol

Good to hear that you've been lucky with that much power. Thanks for your help with my newbie questions
