Who drag races with nittos ? I'm looking to get a better launch with my A4, and my god awfull Kumho Supas are finally done for. I wanted to get two nittos for the back and leave the 2 best trend Kumhos in the front.
Has anyone else had 2 different brand's on their car at once? Is that a smart thing to do? We are finally getting a third car so this will no longer be my daily driver.....
Last question, I here those nittos take a John Force burn out to really make them sticky, is this true? If so, can you really nail it off the line or do you still have to pussyfoot it??

but either way, try different burnout lengths when u get them and see what works best for your car.

Let me tell you though, driving on the street, you can take on and off-ramps at insane speeds (as long as your suspension is good) and the car feels like it is on rails.
