Default ATTN ALL 555R USERS

ugh. I'm still on the fence about buying the drag radials. I will most likely visit the track maybe 1-5 times a year, but I miss having the ability to go full throttle in first gear when I had stock gears. My car is basically stock with 4.10s and lower control arms.

So my question is this: Those with the Nitto 555R's, are they good for daily driving (rain)?

I can only use them for daily driving. Can't get traction with street tires anymore.
I got about 4K miles on last set as daily drive & only 3 runs on the track, and 7 pulls on the dyno.
I just got a new set last week (305/35/18), but wished I knew the 335/30/18 were available.
They are great. Last longer than the BFG's.

yeah rain drivin really isn't an issue with me. I know when I can go full throttle and all that stuff...I just don't want to feel like I'm driving on tire made of grease on a hot stovetop
