What do you guys think of Nittos 555R DR in 285/40/18, I know some of you say MTs are better but they only do 265s for the M3!?
The MT's in 265 are all u need. That's what VAC used last yr and set the record. I ran the Nittos 285/40 and they measure a little tall so I've been unable to get my 60ft in the 1.6x range like VAC did but I still broke the record with them MT are the best tire period. I didn't have a clean run when I ran the 10.6 this week so I know more can be had with better tires
