Default Re: Nitto NT05 vs 555R

Yeah, I guess the NT05 is NOT a drag radial, it is more of a road course tire which is also great on the street. Let some air out and it will hook hard on the launch if you need to. Other than that air them up to spec and they are still great. The rumors of them stinking are bogus. I have really heated them up and parked in my garage and they don't smell any different than any other tire I've had. Burnt rubber smells burnt.
