Tire help Well I know you all are gonna scream ET Street's at me but I've had both the Radial and Bi Plys's before so I don't think I'm gonna go with MT's
So I'm getting my new wheels (17s) this week and its time to get some rubber. I don't really NEED a DR (I don't race on the street or track anymore) but I'd like to have some just because hitting the throttle sucks if all you do is spin!
I was thinking about going with Nitto 555's in the front and 555R's in the rear, but over the years I've heard good and bad things about the 555's. I was kinda wondering about the new NT05R's but I heard they are no better than the MT Radials in the rain. Basically I want a tire thats a little sticky but everytime I hear the word "Rain" when I'm in my car I don't have to rush and go put it away.
Any suggestions?
