Stickiest 295/35/18
Like the title says.... Who makes the stickiest 295-35-18?
Im pushing alittle over 500rwhp and need tires. Dont really want to run 305/35 because they have alot of sidewall..
295s looks good in the rear when running 275 in the front

Doesnt look like Nitto makes that size in a DR, not sure about the PS2s.... I need to do some reserch on those.
I was looking at those... Not sure how good they are? Maybe some one will chime in having used those.

Nitto NT05's in 295/35/18....running on my car now and I have not yet broke them loose around a corner or in a straight line. Even with the cutout open and traction control off, when i floor it, it goes and sticks, no spinning. I only have long tubes, lid, and cutout. No where near 500hp, if you need a R there is the NT05R.

I would go with a 295 BFG Drag Radial. They have fantastic traction and offer better tread-life than Mickey T's.
Don't even consider traction an option with a 295 at 500+ rwhp if you're looking at regular street tires.

That's amazing that your MTs are getting better treadlife than your BFGs. I saw exactly the opposite with my firebird going between BFG DRs and ET Street Radials.
