Nitto NT05 vs nitto 555r II - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Johnny5 · 12-14-2021

I need to order tires for my 91 Zr1. I was going to go for NT05 but I see the 555r G2 are close but a little more quiet. I want the best traction + handling, so really I am just curious about road noise and cornering as I will be taking trips to carlisle, long highway trips etc.
anyone who has these your feedback is appreciated.

Years ago I went with 555s but I regretted not getting the NT05 bc sidewalls were not as stiff for corners but the traction was great.
I do not drive in the rain so I?m not
Conerned with wet performance + treadwear as I will
Only drive it maybe a few thousand miles a year
