With these Nitto NT555R tires, engineers succeeded in designing a DOT approved, drag racing radial tire that would outperform all other drag radials, provide impressive control and handling, and still deliver up to 15,000 miles of tread life of normal street-driving use. Nitto NT555R's are manufactured with the original tread depth of 6/32nds in.and are constructed with a specially formulated soft racing tread compound to provide maximum traction. However, this soft and flexible tread will wear much quicker than tread compounds formulated for regular passenger cars. These NT555R tires are designed primarily for competition drag racing.

Features:

• Slant groove and lateral slit pattern offers water drainage for safety on wet surfaces
• Improved dry traction due to high block rigidity, ultra-high grip compound, and large surface area contact with the road
• Unique tread design provides excellent handling capabilities for daily driving
• Two wide steel tread belts and two nylon tread cap plies for superior handling characteristics
