M/T, Toyo, Nitto 305/35R20 What is best based on

I just finished my build and traction is a thing of the past. Any of you guys out there have a setup close to mine, what are you running?

6M
3.91 gears
656 RWHP
622 TQ

Not a daily driver, in the 8 years I have owned her only see rain once. Not a big fan of playing on curves but love to go straight. I am looking at hook-up and road noise. What are your thoughts?

I'm looking for a rear set of good street tires for traction as well. Was looking into the Nitto NT555 RII tires for the rear.



What did you end up going with?

Want traction? Get a set of 18s, or better yet, 17s.

I have Nitto NT05 315/35*20 on 20x10 wheels. I can spin them at 80 mph. Don't waste your money.

Yes when I wanna get down to party I plan to have a set of 17s most likely. Keep my stockers for driving those longer distances.
