Toyo r888 will be my choice but only after I'm pushing the power that requires such rubber. Currently on nitto nt05 street tire and they hold up fine.

Small little bump to give my impression of drag racing the Z with Nitto NT05r.

First off, I was getting major wheel hop with poly rear diff mounts and street tires (S04). I don't get wheel hop with the drat radials at all. This is a big plus!

They drive on regular everyday road great. I don't drive then on wet/rainy day so I can't comment on that. I would think it would fish tail a lot!

These tires are defiantly sticker than regular street summer tires. They get decently sticky after you warm them up but I think there are better tires out there. For $500 a pair of 305/35 (or 30)/ 18'' its a steal of a deal tire and performance wise.

After I wear these tires out, I think I will get a set of MT Streets. I think they might be stickier and give better 60'.

Horrid track prep at the 1/8 last night. I could not muster anything better than a 2.19 60' with most of them 2.4x. I was trapping 90/91mph in the 1/8 so at least I was picking up some speed at the back end.
