right now im running toyo R888's in the rear in a 305/30/19. ive heard great things about NT05's so I looked at some sizing options. unfortunately they the only logical size for my 10.5" wheel would be the 275/35/19, the only one bigger is a 335/30 . i like to drag race and do a little autox and i dont daily my Z. i know the nt05 is a sticker tire but would that make up for losing some of the contact area?

 

The NT05s will not be stickier than the R888 at the same width. Are you thinking NT01s?

 

The 888 is a stickier tire. The 888 is an R compound race tire while the NT05 is a street compound race tire.

 

ah damn youre i was thinking nt01 and looking at nt05 sizes, fail.

 

I say go with the one with the ideal size.

 

toyo's ftw!
