Early next month I'm planning on taking my lude to the strip to see how it'll do. The way the car sits right now its putting down 250whp which is quite a bit more than stock. I wanted to get some tires that have more grip than the Kumho MX's I have on it right now, but not something so grippy that it would break axles on me. I was thinking something along the lines of Nitto 555r's, but I was wondering if you guys had any other ideas. I have my spare wheels to mount these tires on and I'm only planning on getting two. Any input would be really appreciated

 

Offtopic: I saw you yesterday on magruder. I was gonna see if you wanted to run..then I saw your FMIC and said "fuck that shit." I was in the red GTP

 

i just bought the nitto drag radials 205/55/14...ill tell you how they are....after i go to the track........just looking at them they seem super sticky

 

Nitto's are not super sticky. Nitto's are better than MX's for drag racing.

 

Its funny that you mention that because I havent had a good run since I boosted my car. I think its either the FMIC or the open wastegate that scares people off.

 

I wouldnt have been a good run for you, more like a waste of your gas. The FMIC is what did it.

 

What size tire are you looking at getting? What size/how wide of a rim?

 

They are going on my stock SH wheels so I'm looking at something around a 215/45/16

 

Not too many people make good track tires for 16s. At least not drag tires. I would recommend getting some nice 15inch wheels and buying a pair of 225/50R15 BFG Comp T/A DRs. Best bet for what you want.

 

They are sticky enough to keep you from going into a ditch.
