picked up some nitto 555r's for 100 bucks!!!!!!!!!
 

so a guy posted them for sale on a local forum, for 110 picked up, so i said 100. he said they only had about 3 passes down the track and he wasn't in to imports any more and just wanted them gone. well, he just got back in town yesterday so i met up with him to check them out, i didn't expect them to be as good as he described, i figured he was bs'ing about only having a couple passes. so, here they are (next to my new hoosiers, i was gonna get rims for the hoosier's, but spent some of the money on the dr's).

205/45/15, i'm gonna rock them on the street for every day driving and of course the slicks for the track, although i am gonna try the dr's at the track tomorrow since i don't have the slicks mounted yet. i was a little sketchy about them being kind of 'low pro' only being a 45 series, but they're actually a hair bigger than my 195/50's and that's not even mounted and inflated. sticker's not even wore down ;D

lol, i'm almost scared, that's a lot of tire. i was gonna get some lenso's, but i can't justify spending that much on two rims that only get mounted once a week for a couple hours at the most. i'll prolly just go with these from independ racing wheels, for 56 bucks each (in black with the red lip) http://www.irwheel.com/fourorfivebolt.htm

hate to break it to you but those 555 sucks ass... didnt have good experiences with them. MT's and M&H slicks on the other hand well they are slicks!

i've heard mixed results about them, but a couple people that i know run them and cut 1.9-2.0 60's with them. nobody heats up dr's like they're suppose to, every time i've seen my boys boil them down, they cut good 60's, and you best believe i'm not scared to roast off a 100 dollar set of tires. i'll have results on them tomorrow evening.

hey kevin, how much did you pay for the housiers? (how much are they worth?)

Re: picked up some nitto 555r's for 100 bucks!!!!!!!!!
 

i found them on ebay and ended up getting them for 270 shipped, normally, they're about 160 each plus shipping for that size, so i saved around 100 bucks.
