the only ones that fit the stock rims are the Nitto 555R Extreme Drag Radials. sizes are 305-45-18.

Winter Driving

I drove around for about a month on my Nitto drag radials. When it was pretty cold (10 and down) the ice and snow gets sticky, and with the Nitto's wide profile, they actually got me around pretty good. But when it warmed up at all, they were useless. I have since put on my studded snow tires.

Is it my imagination, or is there like no tread at all on the flat surface of that tire? I see some groves on the sidewall area, but that's it. I have never seen a Nitto DR before.

Mart thats after quite a few smokey burnouts. If you look at my pics pretty close you can see theres a decent amount of tread depth on them.

Yep. They suck in the snow; but, you can get around if you're real careful.
