Nitto Drag Radials.

[CFPC_2010]

Brian - Shipping cost looks to be around $250 for ground so getting someone local my be a better option, however we will be glad to do it for you. Also you are correct on the PN for the Drag radials - it has to have the R suffix for the NT05s otherwise it is a road race radial. The 05s are meant for true competition as they don't have much of a treadwear rating at all. The 555s at least can get up to 10k miles on them.

thanks

The NT05R are the next generation Drag Radial based on the 555. They have slightly more contact patch area and a newer compound, yet have proven to do just fine in the rain. NT555's are a great all around tire, but if you can grab the 05's do it.

Also note the NT555RII are road race tires, the NT555R is a drag radial

Yea, you will find that DR's are a lot cheaper, but you will have to buy them more often !!
