Nitto NT-01?

[Wheeler99WS6]

anyone try these tires? Did you use them for track only or did you try running them on the street? I noticed they have similar specs. to the nt555R II extreme so I am trying to find out all I can about this tire. I am looking to get new tires in the spring/summer. basiscally i need to know how well if at all will this tire perform on the street. I was told the 555r II extreme performs fine on the street.

Yes I would like to try them out this season as they are suppose to release new sizes including 315-35-17!

The extremes were good on the street but I never took them on the highway as they would wear fairly fast.

the extreme (ie 555RII) is the exact same compound as the drag radial (ie 555R)
So it should have the same mileage.
