Nitto NT555R Drag Radials 245/50R16

[240SXer]

I just got some Nitto NT555R Drag Radials 245/50R16 installed on my stock 16in SE rims. The recomended rim width is 7in and we know the S14 is 6.5, but it fits tight with no problems. They tuck pretty well too (barely) but it still works with decent clearance.

These tires hook like mad. With my Kumo 712 225s I was launching at like 3k and spinning bad, now I launch at 5k and there is almost no spin. I took a modded 2002 Mustang GT by 1.5 just off the line. I'm not sure about wear, but these things sure do have the traction they claim to have! I'll post pix tonight.
