NITTO 555R or 555RII

OK, all you Nitto owners. Which Nitto DR would work best on the back of my sig car running 18" Cobra-R wheels. The 555DR, 555DRII or the 555 Perfomance Extreme?

I think it all depends on what your going to be doing. The DR's are made for just that, straight line racing. While the 555RII's are suppose to be better for road course, since they have a stiffer sidewall. The reg 555's are more for a daily driver, since they do better in water.

555R is for the drag strip. Hook good, but they are not for road course.

555 RII's are for road course (corner carving). They do not offer straight line traction off the line like the 555R's, but the sidewalls allow for hard corning ability.
