Default Anybody using NT05R or R888R

I am currently running 285/40/19 hankook v12s and cant pull anything under a 2.1 60ft. I am looking into picking up nt05r or r888r but was curious if anybody has any input on using one of those on the stock sport rims for drags. I am a little afraid I will get crazy wheel hop with a low pro but don't really know anyone thats tried it. And yes I already have solid diff bushings.

As for the wheel hop, change up the subframe and diff bushings to either poly or solid, as that is the biggest factor. The grippier the tire, the more hop you will get, so change those bushings out and then go from there. As for the tires, I can't say much about either of them as they are both 100 compounds, but I have 60 compound Pirelli's on my Z and they hook quite well.
