i second that!! i have nitto 555R's and lemme tell you i will never buy another tire for the street/strip really good in the rain too!! ++++++

if you want an even sicker tires, the M/T ET street radials are badass on street/strip but suck balls in the rain. plan to use those on nice days only with 0% chance of rain lol

for a long-lasting drag radial go with the nittos, for a true street radial(much more mileage than a drag radial) go with the Yokohama avid v4s...i went mid-high 1.9x on them and they kick ASS in the rain and handle great when it's dry out...awesome street tires
