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

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.

Hey man! That was a fun day, hopefully next time I'll have a properly sized FMIC and 100% e85... I might be able to keep up better

Sure was! Hard to deal with GTRs awd and lightning fast shifts... Looking forward to see how Terrys oner does at the next event with his motiv kit and auto trans

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

Where did you find them that cheap?

I run Achilles 123s for the track on my e92 and they're pretty sticky.
