Nexen's hook pretty good. Usually the cheaper the tire the softer the rubber.

I had these on my S2000, and I didn't really like them. Obviously the car didn't make enough power to have traction issues, but I did not feel as confident in regards to handling as I do with other tires.

[slowgreen99]

ive been 1.7xx 60's with the 4.6 and a 5 speed. I know wheelie bar Paul has been a 7.5ish with them. They work for a cheap tire.

we were running consistent 1.7/1.8 or so with ~20 psi in our drag radials on the Nova

we dropped PSI to 15 and ran a 1.5 sixty foot. that's wife driving, leaving on foot brake.

they were 275/60-15, IIRC, (Hal or Jr may correct me, bought them from him)

or, are you talking about a TREADED tire you can DD, not just something "technically legal"

we drive the nova on the skreet with 25 psi in them, but not DD, just out & about

were talking a regular radial, not drag radial.

I've been 1.8's on 315 Sumitomo HTR II's.

[chrisheltra]

Ive been 1.8's on 295 Eagle F1's.

I've been 1.8's on 315 Sumitomo HTR II's.

Kerry Jamison went 11.98 on his 315 Sumitomos. Not sure the 60', but pretty stout. Cheap too.

yep, thought of that AFTER i posted, like a dummy. last time i saw the RCF, it was in storage, i was not thinking of it as a DD 'real tire' scenario, sorry.


i thought Firestone SZ-50's had a real LONG tread block in the center, and were the hooking'est things going for a while?

[bwelch]

I cut consistent 2.05 60' on hankook 19's....:hysterical:

[Silver-Dollar]

I like the Nitto 420s I had on the truck. I was not making huge power like some (350hp/370tq). But behind the 3200rm converter, I could roll into pretty hard without breaking traction.

[JTStreet]

I don't have any first hand experience with the NT05's, but if they're anything like the NT05R, they'll probably do fairly well.

[bwelch]

Just get a set of BF goodrich drag radials and then dremel the word drag off the sidewall. I know if it didn't say drag radial on the side you damn sure cant tell its a racing tire...

[Blue Skunk]

I don't have any first hand experience with the NT05's, but if they're anything like the NT05R, they'll probably do fairly well.

I have them on my car now and they are not comparable to the NT05R's. They are about the same as the 555R's.
