Doesnt seem like there's been much on here about these since they came out and people were struggling to find them in the appropriate size.

Anyone been running them and have feedback? Looking for input on how they handle on the street , nitto seems to imply that run at higher pressure they'll handle corners decently and then aired down work well at the track.

I've got a set of bigs n littles for track use, looking for something to have some traction and handle decently on the street (car makes ~700 with the procharger). I remember the ET streets didn't take much to start feeling uneasy going around a freeway on-ramp.

basically debating 555G2 upfront and 555R2 on the back or just going NT01 all around (R888R are on back order like usual...)

Ran G2s up front and R2 305/35/18 in the back. All street driving. No issues. They hooked pretty well too.

I have 28" 555RIIs on the back with my procharged combo and love it so far (~2500 miles), perfect street tire.

I'm running them 305/35/R19, made a big difference on hook up. I don't do a lot of curvy stuff but they seem solid for regular street duties.
