Anyone have these on their L? If so how are they (I.e wear, performance etc.) compared to Toyo Proxes and F1's?

Considering putting these on next time I change the tires.

Thanks! -

 

I just put a pair on the back of my L. Only a few miles, but they seem to hook a lot better than my old F1's and the cost (200/per) was a lot better than the F1's. I'm waiting for a little more $$ to get the fronts.

 

Purchase the 555's with confidence. They are bad-*** tires, and unlike the F1's, the bead protects the rim edge.

 

get the 305 DR in the rear

 

I have the 555's on the front and the 555DR's on the rears..

I love them, Heat them up on the street and your ready to run..

 

NT-555's in oem size (295-45-ZR18) on all 4 corners
Hoosiers for the track.

 

555 on front
555r on back.....hook like a **** on the street, not sure about the track never been

 

That is an excellent selling feature in itself.

 

Horrible tires. Waste of money. I did not try the DR's though.

 

They will be my next set...........

PEacE...............

How do they wear VS. the F1's? Anyone want to chime in on how they handle in the rain ?

 

I don't know about the 555's but the DR's suck in the rain and don't expect much wear beyond 10,000 miles. They did hook better than my F-1's but another member had better 60' times than I did with the Nitto's (He had F-1's!).

HI!... I've been running NITTO 555R's on my truck for about 4 months now. They have about 1/2 tread left on them. They are a GREAT tire for the street. They hook like a ****. I actually think they hook excelent in the rain. I'll spin for about 10FT and they hook and your gone. I'm running the 305/45/R18's. Now that I have the 3000 P.I converter in they spin a bit out of the hole but when THEY hook, they HOOK!!!!! I luv them. A few of my buddies have AWD turbo cars, and I can out launch both of them on the street.

 

I got all four nitto 555 on my truck and they suck in the rain. I guess most Z rating tires are not very good on wet surfaces......I am not sure on the F1...........

 

Those with the 305/45R18's Nitto DR's... did it throw off your speedo much by switching to a taller tire? I'd love to get them for the rear, but not sure if it'll hurt my speedo.
