I have a set of Quicktime Pros they are so bad, I haven't used them since July. I can run 12.1 with my stock tires, the best I have run with the Quicktime Pros was a 12.3 most of the runs were in the 12.4 -1.5 range.
I know M/T has a set of 28 inch ET streets ready to be released. I can't wait to see how they will work.

I thought you guys had good results with them Quicktimes?
There is no 12 inch wide wheel around to fit those on?
That sucks and I wanted to buy a 16" Street drag tire, better wait for the E.T. street then. I loved mine on my truck!

Last year I was getting 1.71's to 1.75's on my 26x11.5x16 MT et streets. That was no tubes and on 16x10 wheels. I had a 3lb lower and metco upper.
I don't think you can put the Nittos in the same catagory as the racing tires. The Nitto 555R's are just a soft compound street tire.
I have a set of 28x16x10 hoosiers on 16x8 wheels ready for the truck now.
