WOW! I'm impressed, I never got close to that!

I currently run the 555Rs on my 9.5 rims and think they are a "step up" from street tires, slightly better hook of the line, but good for 15-20K miles. I air down to 24Lbs and best was a 1.9 60'. With the 3:73s they just spin on a hard launch, I leave softer and roll into it. I like the Nittos as a street/strip tire, but they are far from equal to QTPs or MTs for pure strip use. I've still managed to break drive shafts, axles and posi units These 17x11s and whatever tire are just for show until I get an better rear.
