Hankooks or Nittos?? 295 45ZR 18
Depends. Hankooks for longevity or nittos for grip.

Thanks Sean, the NT-555 or the NT05?
555 will last longer I think.

If it's DD and mileage matters go hankooks all the way around. If you want some grip and decent longevity from a drag radial get the 555Ron the rears. If your like me and mileage is a non issue I'd buy the M&H 325 or the MT's on the rear. Either way hankooks up front.

+1^^ I don't think Bill needs Drag Radials. Hankooks is what I have on my Truck. For a daily driver.
I have the toyo proxes II on mine. They work well for dd

Nitto 420s FTW! Better life and DD then the 555 and still good grip!

Thanks Morey, I'll go with the Hankooks or the Nitto 555.
Depends where I can get the best deal.
The Goodyear F-1s are starting to dry rot & have about 2/32s left on thread.
My 2003 only has 34,000 miles on it.
I plan to get it painted first, then bite the bullet on tires. Bill

I have the Nohook All Seasons on mine right now. GREAT mileage out of them, not scared of the rain with them, but they well, don't hook all that well lol. That said, I was able to get a 1.9 60' pretty consistently at Darlington by leaving the line like grandma.
I need to get a spare set of rims and make a drag pack out of them... Either the Nittos so I can use them on the road for semi-dd days, or the M&H for strictly drag racing.
