GreenFaleen · February 23rd, 2008, 09:18 PM

nitto 555R's toyo proxies are ok but no where near as good

HMUSN · February 23rd, 2008, 09:19 PM

BFG's

ESG-642T · February 23rd, 2008, 09:28 PM

YOUR BOTH WRONG...

With his new 8.8 & 31spline he needs ET streets

HMUSN · February 23rd, 2008, 09:29 PM

with 280 HP BFG's will hook just fine.

obdnanr · February 23rd, 2008, 09:32 PM

*rwhp

and dont nittos last like 10k more miles than bfgs

HMUSN · February 23rd, 2008, 09:33 PM

the more hook you get the less life of the tire normally.

So will nittos, but with the Motor + 8.8 I'm sure he'll be looking for/at more than 280rwhp.

obdnanr · February 23rd, 2008, 09:34 PM

ahhh, math

HMUSN · February 23rd, 2008, 09:35 PM

I'm not a fan of tire life as I am for hooking better honestly.

the nittos do last longer but imo the bfg's will hook better.

you could also look into MT's.

obdnanr · February 23rd, 2008, 09:38 PM

well if i wanted all o ut hook wouldnti just get some slicks?

If you wanna DD and get best possible traction ET streets.

HMUSN · February 23rd, 2008, 09:41 PM

MT's are expensive as hell though.

I think it's overkill for his power range.

obdnanr · February 23rd, 2008, 09:42 PM

power range soon to be 400+, but ill post the facts what they come mwahah

HMUSN · February 23rd, 2008, 09:44 PM

even with 400+ a MT is damn near a slick.

it's not the best tire for a DD. if you are super careful on the road sure.. but normal driving and some weather hits.. I would pull over.

obdnanr · February 23rd, 2008, 09:46 PM

yeah im pretty careful and babbyish when its raining, thats all i get down in georgia. and lately im babbying her just so she doesnt break before i get my new stuff. its about 3 week wait on a part for my gforce t5 lol.

itschristorres8 · February 23rd, 2008, 11:21 PM

Nitto 555r IMO to save a lil green
but the BFs are good too
really up to you both are great street and strip
i run nitto 555r's on the street and i like them

Trent-04v6 · February 24th, 2008, 04:50 AM

Nitto 555 OR Kuhmo Ecsta MX

my two Faves.. the Kuhmos and Nittos are widely found on cobras so it should be plenty for you =]

Onemanzu · February 24th, 2008, 11:50 AM

looks like you need to look into a set of track wheels and tires

obdnanr · February 24th, 2008, 11:54 AM

yeah.. nitto 555s wont fit on my stock rims bleh. dont feel like forking a grand over for rims either
