Go with Pirelli "Trofeo R". Not the one without "R". Trofeo R is the best. And the most expensive.

I run these on my evo 8 running 500 awhp and there great, I would say I have 5-6k miles on them so far and would say I'm half way threw the tire's life. That's actually not bad for a 100 tread wear tire. The best part about them is my car is also lowered a bit and I run a good amount of negative camber so the inside tends to wear quicker like all my lowered bmw have, but I just had the tires unmounted and had the inside's put on the outside's to get a little more tire life. I do agree that they are very noisy but the performance makes up for it.

My 265/35/18 NT05s have done just fine with 695whp. LSD may have something to do with that as well...

I believe Drew runs NT555Rs on his ESS M3, and he stands by them.

Probably about the same..

DunlopDIREZZA ZII STAR SPEC

I had the older version the star spec z1 on my 460fwhp srt4 that made 500trq and they gripped crazy for a street tire. 1st was useless as usual but top of 2nd had traction and very little chirp into 3rd. For the money I paid(185ea) I couldn't complain. Had everything really. Cut a 1.9 60ft and those who had high horsepower wrong wheel drive (lol!) know it's almost impossible to get out of the hole
