You like that? I've had good experience with that combo...but it was my Ws6 ...so like 9 years ago!

wait sold it in 05 so 5 years ago.

I just think the Nt05 's have better sidewall stiffness.

i do beleive the 555R is stickier once heated up!


The joy of having too much HP...lol

i guess i have to make compromises...if i want a good handler and a good drag racer. I'm not into changing tires i like to set it up once and forget it.

My tire guy is talking about tread block deflection being different.
this i do understand.

Funny thing is i was leaning toward the 55 up front and the 555r in back
But the NT is almost as sticky....and has great sidewall stiffness.

any experiment with a Nt05 up front...i think they make a 255 35 20
but thats a big change from 245 45 20

I will say this...
I had Nitto Invo's on my Zo6 almost 600 rwhp....a head cam header package... and the Nitto Invos were far superior to the runflats...even though they don't reccomend your topping out you Vette .
I've PS2's and they were great but too damn expensive!
