Default Anyone running NT05R with 600+rwhp

Hey guys !

Who's running these tires? How is the traction? Road noise?
How many miles on them?

How much power are you making? is it nitrous , FI or N/A car?

I'm going to mount them very soon on 360 Forged Staright 5 Carbon fiber


Thanks in advance..
Sam.

The NT05r is a great tire. I can stick 2nd gear when the roads are warm. They wear very well and I did not notice any loudness in road noise. I have tried several drag radials and these are the best in my opinion.

I have them in 345/30R19's on my 612 rwhp Viper, it spins then all the way threw 1st and 1/2 way threw 2nd. They are by far the best hooking street tire I have run on the car.

Probably the tire I am going to go with on my car. A friend just put them on his car and managed his best 60's back to back (then got booted from the track LOL). Says the car feels awesome on the street from a dead stop too. Not an over 600 car but just some real first hand info. Another friend has them going on his Mustang, should be in Friday. A great bang for the buck tire (in the 17s anyway).

I have them at 25psi right now, I have run them at 25-35 and everywhere in between. They seem to hook best at 25psi. but 1st gear is still prity useless.

For running to fast without the proper safety equipment. Roll cage, etc.
