do the drag radials corner and have as good handling as the regular 555

mustang2517 · November 29th, 2007, 05:02 PM

i was thinking about putting the 555 275 up front and the drag radial out back 315

the DRs are meant for drag and drag only.. that's y they made the 555s so that you can have more cornering and street use out of them

I run that setup of 555r's works good for me, they grip awesome on the street...

i know of more than a couple corvettes who do a lot of racing and they run 555r all the way around

Drgnracin72 · November 29th, 2007, 07:42 PM

and run very fast with them.

If you want a good sticky tire for a strait line go with the 555R.

If you want a decent sticky tire that will handle well you may want to look into the NT-01 or the 555RII. Both tires have a stiffer side wall for improved cornering

I have a pair and they are great for the street and strip as long as you are going straight. Turning is overrated anyway.
